stack commented on HBASE-21301:
-------------------------------

All of the above sounds great [~archana.katiyar]. Yes, a table makes best 
sense. Could be a table that used the date-tiered compaction so 
older-than-30-days gets left alone; later, can work on a mechanism to just drop 
the aged hfiles rather have compaction rewrite the data dropping old version. 
It can be a 'system' table but not depend on being assigned ahead of 
use-tables. If the table is not present, there will be lots of complaint in 
logs. Easy for operator to fix by creating table. I'd suggest no need of an 
auto-create in each RegionServer -- punt to operator. Perhaps supply a script 
to create the table on setup? Thanks.

> Google recently released a beta feature for Cloud Bigtable which presents a 
> heat map of the keyspace. *Given how hotspotting comes up now and again here, 
> this is a good idea for giving HBase ops a tool to be proactive about it.* 
> >>>
> Additionally, we are announcing the beta version of Key Visualizer, a 
> visualization tool for Cloud Bigtable key access patterns. Key Visualizer 
> helps debug performance issues due to unbalanced access patterns across the 
> key space, or single rows that are too large or receiving too much read or 
> write activity. With Key Visualizer, you get a heat map visualization of 
> access patterns over time, along with the ability to zoom into specific key 
> or time ranges, or select a specific row to find the full row key ID that's 
> responsible for a hotspot. Key Visualizer is automatically enabled for Cloud 
> Bigtable clusters with sufficient data or activity, and does not affect Cloud 
> Bigtable cluster performance.
