Josh Elser updated ACCUMULO-3648:
---------------------------------
Issue Type: New Feature (was: Improvement)
> Ability to Scan Table Keys in Reverse Order
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-3648
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-3648
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: master, tserver
> Reporter: Mike Fagan
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features, performance
>
> There are cases where you would like to scan a table in reverse key order.
> For example:
> Consider a table using an inverted timestamp key.
> This allows for very quick access to the latest records.
> But It would be helpful to quickly access earliest records without having to:
> A) scan through all the records to build a collection to reverse sort
> B) store the table again using the reverse key
