--------------------------------------
bq. You going to commit this one or you think there is stuff to do still?
Thanks boss. I wanted to test it on an actual cluster first. Could not get to
it last week. I'll do the test, and if positive, will commit.
> Local Transactions in META
> --------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-7721
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7721
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Coprocessors, regionserver
> Reporter: Enis Soztutar
> Assignee: Enis Soztutar
> Fix For: 0.96.0

>
> Thanks to Lars' local transactions patch (HBASE-5229), we can entertain the
> possibility of doing local transactions within META regions.
> We need this mainly for region splits and merges. Clients scan the META
> concurrent to the split/merge operations, and to prevent the clients from
> seeing overlapping region boundaries or holes in META, we just through hoops.
> For more backgroun, see BlockingMetaScannerVisitor, HBASE-5986, and my
> comments at https://reviews.apache.org/r/8716/.
> Now, for the actual implementation options:
> 1. As outlined in http://hadoop-hbase.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html,
> - We have to implement a Custom RegionSplitPolicy for the META regions to
> ensure that a table's regions are always co-located in the same META region.
> Then we can add MultiRowMutationEndpoint as a system level coprocessor, and
> use it for META operations.
> 2. Do smt like HBASE-7716, and expose local atomic multi-row operations as a
> native API.
> 3. Move META to zookeeper. Use zookeeper.multi.
> Then we can change region split / merge logic to make use of atomic META
> operations.
> Thoughts, suggestions?
