Thomas D'Silva commented on PHOENIX-5132:
-----------------------------------------
[~gjacoby] Actually thinking about this some more if the row key is
viewIndexId, tenantId then one tenant would not be able to see data from
another tenant since we construct the startRow and stopRow of the scan to lead
with the viewIndexId and tenantId. In the test were you able to view data from
some other tenant using a tenant specific connection?
> View indexes with different owners but of the same base table can be assigned
> same ViewIndexId

> All indexes on views for a particular base table are stored in the same
> physical HBase table. Phoenix distinguishes them by prepending each row key
> with an encoded short or long integer called a ViewIndexId.
> The ViewIndexId is generated by using a sequence to guarantee that each view
> index id is unique. Unfortunately, the sequence used follows a convention of
> [SaltByte, Tenant, Schema, BaseTable] for its key, which means that there's a
> separate sequence for each tenant that owns an index in the view index table.
> (See MetaDataUtil.getViewIndexSequenceKey) Since all the sequences start at
> the same value, collisions are not only possible but likely.
> I've written a test that confirms the ViewIndexId collision. This means it's
> very likely that query results using one view index could mistakenly include
> rows from another index, but I haven't confirmed this.
> All view indexes for a base table, regardless of whether globally or
> tenant-owned, should use the same sequence.
