> There's very little visibility into the hbase client. Folks who care to add
> some kind of metrics collection end up wrapping Table method invocations with
> {{System.currentTimeMillis()}}. For a crude example of this, have a look at
> what I did in {{PerformanceEvaluation}} for exposing requests latencies up to
> {{IntegrationTestRegionReplicaPerf}}. The client is quite complex, there's a
> lot going on under the hood that is impossible to see right now without a
> profiler. Being a crucial part of the performance of this distributed system,
> we should have deeper visibility into the client's function.
> I'm not sure that wiring into the hadoop metrics system is the right choice
> because the client is often embedded as a library in a user's application. We
> should have integration with our metrics tools so that, i.e., a client
> embedded in a coprocessor can report metrics through the usual RS channels,
> or a client used in a MR job can do the same.
> I would propose an interface-based system with pluggable implementations. Out
> of the box we'd include a hadoop-metrics implementation and one other,
> possibly [dropwizard/metrics|https://github.com/dropwizard/metrics].
> Thoughts?
