Hi,

 

Can anyone help please?

 

How stable is Hbase when inserting data? I have seen a few emails
regarding issues with this.

 

The reason I ask is that we have built a 12 data-node cluster, with
region servers, zoo keeper etc.. When we add a few million rows via the
Java APIs, the system periodically fails. Regions go-off line,
performance slows down dramatically from 1000 inserts per second to
under 200 per second. It just has a generally feeling of instability. We
have rebuilt the system several times. We have changed the write-buffer
sizes, added more memory, added periodical flushing of the tables etc..

The network seems to be performing fine as are the hard-drives etc..

 

We are using Hbase 0.89.20100924+28, r

 

Is the only way to upload (say 1,000,000 rows) via map reduce? Or should
we be able to just 'put' new records without the system failing apart?

 

We have been trying to build a working system that we can insert records
reliably but to no avail.

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Regards 

 

Stuart
