Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-8089:
-------------------------------------
I like the looks of SQLite4's encoding structure [0]. Specifically, numeric
values [1], regardless of type, are directly comparable. I think it could be
easily extended to support maps and lists.
Thoughts?

> This proposal outlines an improvement to HBase that provides for a set of
> types, above and beyond the existing "byte-bucket" strategy. This is intended
> to reduce user-level duplication of effort, provide better support for
> 3rd-party integration, and provide an overall improved experience for
> developers using HBase.
