Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-6222:
---------------------------------------
bq. I think you mentioned that shadow column family approach is considerably
slower than a native tag based approach.
Some single host benchmarks that illustrate the difference are in the PDF
attached to this JIRA. There's a price for security but we would pay less with
tags in cells. Of course, if you don't use cell ACLs then it's not an issue
either way.
bq. How far along we are from having tags in Cells.
If the timeframe for that is a couple of months, I'd recommend waiting. Anyway,
this issue has been sitting here for a while, but not on account of the patch
not being in a committable state.

> Saw an interesting article:
> http://www.fiercegovernmentit.com/story/sasc-accumulo-language-pro-open-source-say-proponents/2012-06-14
> "The Senate Armed Services Committee version of the fiscal 2013 national
> defense authorization act (S. 3254) would require DoD agencies to foreswear
> the Accumulo NoSQL database after Sept. 30, 2013, unless the DoD CIO
> certifies that there exists either no viable commercial open source database
> with security features comparable to [Accumulo] (such as the HBase or
> Cassandra databases)..."
> Not sure what a 'commercial open source database' is, and I'm not sure whats
> going on in the article, but tra-la-la'ing, if we had per-KeyValue 'security'
> like Accumulo's, we might put ourselves in the running for federal
> contributions?
