Guang Yang commented on HBASE-12894:
------------------------------------
If there is no objective, I would like to work on a patch for this one, on a
higher level, the proposal is:
* We will upgrade Jetty to 9.x, along with that we will need to upgrade Jersey
to 2.x and Servlet to 3.x.
* In order to maintain backward compatibility, we will stay on Jackson1 for
JSON marshall/unmarshall (maybe we provide an option for other json library?).
* Since HBase forked the InfoServer implementation, we should be able to
upgrade that to Jetty 9 as well.
Should I assign this ticket to myself for better tracking?

> Key: HBASE-12894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12894
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: REST
> Affects Versions: 0.98.0
> Reporter: Rick Hallihan
> Labels: MicrosoftSupport
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> The Jetty component that is used for the HBase Stargate REST endpoint is
> version 6.1.26 and is fairly outdated. We recently had a customer inquire
> about enabling cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) for the REST endpoint and
> found that this older version does not include the necessary filter or
> configuration options, highlighted at:
> http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Feature/Cross_Origin_Filter
> The Jetty project has had significant updates through versions 7, 8 and 9,
> including a transition to be an Eclipse subproject, so updating to the latest
> version may be non-trivial. The last update to the Jetty component in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3377 was a minor version update
> and did not require significant work. This update will include a package
> namespace update so there will likely be a larger number of required changes.
