Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-6721:
---------------------------------------

bq. With this, master, zk and META are still shared across different groups 
with little isolation guarantees or SLAs. I am wondering whether this is worth 
the effort without having proper multi-tenancy at all levels.

I agree with this, but in defense of Francis' approach here, HDFS is also 
shared (though it helps that writes prefer the local datanode, as do shortcut 
reads). Admission control / QoS is a hard problem that requires a full stack 
conversation and, in my opinion, calls for considering a framework for 
admission control spanning from Common outward, something similar to a security 
access token (perhaps even an attribute of same) with support at each layer for 
mapping a logical notion of priority or quota to the actual enforcement 
mechanism, whatever it is. That will be a difficult project to say the least 
and in the meantime we could make incremental improvements at various layers of 
the stack if there is a demonstrated benefit.

> 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.
