We have method to identify which tables will not receive read/write requests; But to be safe, we will exclude the tables that newly created (as they might be under creating), say in latest 2 days; If Hbase doesn't have such metadata, it's okay that we add that during the table creation; But if it

We got a bunch of datasets in our CDH cluster and want to do some data analysis on those which requires some meta data only available in MySQL. We could do a one time Sqoop and then want to setup a job to capture the changes and write to HBase. I'm looking for options to handle the MySQL changes,

But why do you want that in HBase? Do you need random read and random write milliseconds access to those rows? Or you are going to run some analytics jobs which are going to do full scans anyway? If the later, why not just dumping that as files and doing the queries with a SQL engine? If you need

After predetermined number of days, would your table(s) not receive any read / write requests ? Have you considered using TTL for cleaning old data ? Cheers On Aug 14, 2015, at 2:54 AM, ShaoFeng Shi shaofeng...@gmail.com wrote: Hello the community, In my case, I want to cleanup the
