To be clearer about the ambiguous +1, we're using Pig 0.8, hbase 0.89 something something, and a modified version of HBaseStorage. Anything to clean that up gets a +1 from me.

We're still using HBase 0.20.6 with Pig 0.6 and we'll be upgrading to
Pig 0.8 soon, but a HBase 0.90 is planned for us soon too so we should
be on that before we need to upgrade to Pig > 0.8.

How serious is the HBaseStorage in 0.8? Should we wait for 0.8.1
before upgrading?

Eitherway I think for us upgrading to HBase 0.90 is more important as
you say, so we can always upgrade to Pig 0.8.1 at the same time, so
I've got no problem with it requiring HBase 0.90.

Thanks,

Hi folks,
Is anyone who uses HBaseStorage in Pig still on hbase 0.20.6?
There are a number of tickets outstanding to improve HBaseStorage and
I've suggested that we should add a shim layer to work between the
different versions, but it's a big pain to do. I'd rather just move on to supporting 0.90 only. We just upgraded Twitter's HBase version last week and it's oh-my-god better in terms of stability, and the upgrade
was pretty smooth.. Objections?

If everyone is ok with that for Pig 0.9 -- how about Pig 0.8.1? There are a number of bug fixes for 0.8 already in the branch, and there's a
pretty critical HBaseStorage bug fix that needs to go in, as well.
Would it be too surprising if 0.8 started requiring a different
version of hbase all of a sudden when you upgrade a minor version?
