chenning commented on HBASE-7949:
---------------------------------
I think the content itself should be stored in filesystem as file or the
aggregated file, Hbase stores a location or location/offset information. The
application built on top of HBase or HDFS can implement it too, however,the
implementation in HBase level can simplify the application and leverage some
good mechanisms of HBase.
> Enable big content store in HBase

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Brainstorming
> Reporter: chenning

> Big content stored in hbase consumes a lot of system resource when region
> split or compaction operation happens.
> How HBase can be used to store big content along with some self descriptive
> meta-data.
> The general idea is to add a new type of column family, and the content of
> this kind of column family doesn't participate the region split and
> compaction. An index(rowkey-location) is introduced in this new column family
> and the split and compaction are only applied to this index.
