----------------------------------------------------------------
bq. 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.
By definition embedding a REST server per daemon is a different architectural
approach than using the existing gateway.
Please explain why using the gateway for administrative function is
insufficient.
Edit: Also, please explain the statement "embedded REST api in region server
makes a lot of sense for long term maintenance of HBase" in detail.

> 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
