The only thing to consider is to correctly switch from Tachyon/alluxio file url to regular HDFS url. 2016-02-29 19:19 GMT+01:00 Stack <[email protected]>: > On Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 5:32 AM, Serega Sheypak <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Hi, did anyone consider running HBase on top of http://www.alluxio.org/ > ? > > Does it make sense? > > > > > It'd probably run great until you crash... > St.Ack >
