ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-18945:
------------------------------------------------
bq.We have it in Region, Store, StoreFile etc.
Reading the code I think for having Comparator in Store or not depends on what
type of InternalScanner are we going to expose. How ever if the new interface
is only exposing some restrcited but powerful APIs then it is still fine to
expose in Store? So that CPs in case they need to filter out or do some
processing on KVs can do it at the InternalScanner level?
StoreFile level we may not need it IMHO.
bq.Should we purge the Serializable if we prepare to make CellComparator
IA.Public?
Is there any harm in having it Serializable? Am not very sure on this.

> Based on discussions over in HBASE-18826 and HBASE-18183 it is better we
> expose CellComparator as a public interface so that it could be used in
> Region/Store interfaces to be exposed to CPs.
