Asaf Mesika commented on HBASE-3434:
------------------------------------
Dhurba - did you managed to code this stuff? We've just been hitting the exact
same problem. I've seen a very similar design implemented in project
[HBaseHUT|https://github.com/sematext/HBaseHUT], but he focused on Puts rather
than increments and decided to place code in Client and a M/R job other than
using co-processors
> ability to increment a counter without reading original value from storage

> There are a bunch of applications that do read-modify-write operations on
> HBase constructs, e.g a counter; The counter value has to be read in from
> hdfs before it can be incremented. We have an application where the number
> of increments on a counter far outnumbers the number of times the counter is
> used or read. For these type of applications, it will be very beneficial to
> not have to read in the counter from disk before it can be incremented.
