----------------------------------
Hi Andrew,
This jira is posted based on information of the mailing list thread and gather
interests in enhancing HBase REST API. This jira is not rearchitecting what is
already available, but embedded REST api in region server makes a lot of sense
for long term maintenance of HBase. The gateway proxy approach works too.

> Key: HBASE-6193
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6193
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Eric Yang
>
> For enabling HBASE-4368, it may be useful to have embedded REST API server
> for each region server, and HBase Master can either aggregate or
> proxy/redirect REST API base on administrative task functions.
> The popular admin task that can take advantage of this setup are:
> - Trigger table compaction
> - Show process list
> - Health check
> - Show black listed servers
