Possibly, but it would look different than Don described. It would be fairly easy to write data to an existing HBase instance from Accumulo (and one can probably assume the opposite to be true). Thus, Gets/Scans would be using the HBase API.

The replication interface might be an easy place to try and support this.

    "Commands" like scan, put, create table, etc.

    It would respond to hbase thrift and pretend it was hbase.... But it
    is using accumulo behind the scenes. basically be a translation
    layer. There are obviously some things that don't translate.

    I presume you could do something across all of the big table
    implementations.

        Crazy/bad idea I've had before.... we could develop a
        hbase->accumulo proxy that receives basic hbase commands and
        then writes out accumulo.

        It is being maintained.  I have tried very hard not to modify
        the core OpenTSDB to support it.  But, it would be nice if we
        could define a storage-independent layer to which it could
        adhere.

        I don't believe the OTSDB team is interested, but a basic
        scalable back-end abstraction would be nice.  As would a
        standard java build environment, but that doesn't seem to be
        wanted, either.

        We could work towards a common storage abstraction, which
        would be a reasonable request.

        Zipkin does a good job of being storage independent.  I would
        work towards their model.

            I noticed Eric Newton's opentsdb adapter for Accumulo.
             Is this still being maintained?

            Also wondering if the StumbleUpon folks are willing to
            merge it in as an alternative to HBase back end.

            Thanks
