Josh Elser commented on HBASE-14172:
------------------------------------

bq. Do we know the compatibility story?

Thrift traditionally guarantees wire compatibility between versions. The 
generated code by thrift is not necessarily backwards compatible. I assume this 
is still the case for 0.9.3. Of course, like all software, this is to be taken 
with a grain of salt as to whether or not this was actually achieved in 0.9.3 
without sufficient testing (we've historically had some pain in Accumulo when 
upgrading Thrift, although often due to performance issues rather than wire 
compatibility). I personally haven't yet looked at what 0.9.3 has over the 
previous versions.

> Upgrade existing thrift binding using thrift 0.9.2 compiler.
