------------------------------------
Hi Guanghao, thanks for your feedback.
Yes, I agree it would be better to use a new ReplicationEndpoint.
The ReplicationEndpoint is passed into the run() method of ReplicaitonSource:
```
// get the WALEntryFilter from ReplicationEndpoint and add it to default
filters
ArrayList<WALEntryFilter> filters = Lists.newArrayList(
(WALEntryFilter)new SystemTableWALEntryFilter());
WALEntryFilter filterFromEndpoint =
this.replicationEndpoint.getWALEntryfilter();
```
then at the end of this method a new attempt for starting the shipper thread
(i.e. ReplicationSourceWALReaderThread) is launched:
```
tryStartNewShipperThread(walGroupId, queue);
```
tryStartNewShipperThread() is invoking startNewWALReaderThread, which returns a
ReplicationSourceWALReaderThread and also applies all filters to it:
```
ChainWALEntryFilter readerFilter = new ChainWALEntryFilter(filters);
ReplicationSourceWALReaderThread walReader = new
ReplicationSourceWALReaderThread(manager,
replicationQueueInfo, queue, startPosition, fs, conf, readerFilter,
metrics);
```
I agree, that embedding the redirections information into a new
ReplicationEndpoint just like we do with the filters makes sense.
But, the inspection of the individual WAL entries would still have to occur in
the Shipper Threads itself
(like
```
entry = filterEntry(entry);
entry = redirectEntry(entry);
```
)
Do you agree? Or am I missing something?

> It would be nice to replicate tables from one namespace to another namespace.
> Example:
> Master cluster, namespace=default, table=bar
> Slave cluster, namespace=dr, table=bar
> Replication happens in class ReplicationSink:
> public void replicateEntries(List<WALEntry> entries, final CellScanner
> cells, ...){
> ...
> TableName table =
> TableName.valueOf(entry.getKey().getTableName().toByteArray());
> ...
> addToHashMultiMap(rowMap, table, clusterIds, m);
> ...
> for (Entry<TableName, Map<List<UUID>, List<Row>>> entry :
> rowMap.entrySet()) {
> batch(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue().values());
> }
> }
