--------------------------------------
HBASE-14850 should subsume this jira. Thanks [~busbey]

> Key: HBASE-1015
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1015
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Client
> Affects Versions: 0.20.6, 1.0.0
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Assignee: Aditya Kishore
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HBASE-1015-HBase-native-client.patch,
> HBASE-1015-HBase-native-client.patch

>
> If via HBASE-794 first class support for talking via Thrift directly to
> HMaster and HRS is available, then pure C and C++ client libraries are
> possible.
> The C client library would wrap a Thrift core.
> The C++ client library can provide a class hierarchy quite close to
> o.a.h.h.client and, ideally, identical semantics. It should be just a
> wrapper around the C API, for economy.
> Internally to my employer there is a lot of resistance to HBase because many
> dev teams have a strong C/C++ bias. The real issue however is really client
> side integration, not a fundamental objection. (What runs server side and how
> it is managed is a secondary consideration.)
