stack commented on HBASE-4991:
------------------------------
bq. Do we need to design the intent part (and steps of an operation) as a
generic framework for all the master-coordinated tasks?
I'd think you could make it work for you but make it so it could be others.
How does Accumulo do it do you know? You might get some ideas over there.
bq. I thought we are only changing the API (with multiple region support) and
focussing more on refactoring with good test/stress-test in this JIRA.
You mean to get this facility into core?
My sense is that you could get this specialized lump into hbase to do this one
facility if lots of tests but my fear is that if it does go in, it'll live
forever as an awkward appendage. Seems like we have an opportunity to add some
base primitives that we can then build this feature on as well as others. Pity
to waste it (understood if you don't want to do the generalized system).
bq. Can we address intent/actions part out of scope of this JIRA?
I'm reluctant to because of the above -- we'll get a specialized lump of code
that will live forever and we'll all be afraid to touch.
Maybe others think different.
