Hi Can I do splits on regular expressions instead of specific keys? For example, keys having a particular pattern go to node#1 and others go to node#2 etc.

This could look like this: create 'mytable', 'myfamily', {SPLITS => ['111111', '222222', '333333', '444444']} resulting in 5 regions: [below-111111[ , [111111-222222[, [222222-333333[, [333333-444444[, [444444-above[ If you have a limited amount of attributes you store per row you should consider using OpenTSDB that's built on top of hbase and aims on time series data. regards Chris ----- Ursprüngliche Message ----- Von: Prakrati Agrawal <[email protected]> An: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> CC: Gesendet: 13:23 Mittwoch, 4.Juli 2012 Betreff: Presplit regions when creating a table Dear all, I am using Hbase 0.90.6 I have a streaming data which I want to store in Hbase table. I thought of the row key design as "typeString_date_Id" where typeString is of 5 types. Now the problem is that the types are not evenly distributed i.e I have 1 type a lot more than another type due to which if I start inserting the data, I will see hotspotting in some region servers as compared to others. To avoid this, I thought I will presplit the regions. I am not understanding how to use the region splitter to my benefit. Can I get a code snippet on how to do it. I am using RegionSplitter interface to do the same. Thanks Prakrati ________________________________ This email message may contain proprietary, private and confidential information.
