Hi, I have been learning hbase for quite some time now. I have used following sources for learning hbase. 1) Hbase : The definitive guide 2) Hbase in Action 3) Hbase the official guide.
In my belief , these provides good introductions to hbase but refrain from going in deep. My question is how to understand internals of hbase like 1) What exactly happens when cluster is started/stopped. 2) How Hbase uses zookeeper to manage coordination. 3) How initial read/write request is handled when table is empty 4) and more such questions .. So is going though source code is the only option ? If yes , then any guideline to go though such a big project ? -- Thanks and Regards, Vimal Jain
