Can this also colocate regions of different tables, maybe based on a key prefix?
In our case we'd tenants share tables, and each row key would be a prefixed by
a tenant id.

Currently it determines group membership based on a table property. We can make
things more generic and have membership determined from region metadata (ie
startKey). Would that work for you? Would each tenant become a group? Or can
multiple tenants be part of the same group?

> In multi-tenant deployments of HBase, it is likely that a RegionServer will
> be serving out regions from a number of different tables owned by various
> client applications. Being able to group a subset of running RegionServers
> and assign specific tables to it, provides a client application a level of
> isolation and resource allocation.
> The proposal essentially is to have an AssignmentManager which is aware of
> RegionServer groups and assigns tables to region servers based on groupings.
> Load balancing will occur on a per group basis as well.
> This is essentially a simplification of the approach taken in HBASE-4120. See
> attached document.
