Varun Saxena commented on YARN-4053:
------------------------------------

I think we need to revive this JIRA and decide its scope.
I will be converting everything to longs as of now. And throw exceptions if its 
a floating point or BigInteger value.

Other than that, we need to decide do we need to differentiate between 
TIME_SERIES and SINGLE_VALUE , indicate to client if a particular metric is an 
aggregated metric or not, etc.
The challenge though is that we cannot use cell tags for anything which needs 
to be sent back to client as a Get/Scan cant get hold of tags on the client 
side.



> Change the way metric values are stored in HBase Storage

> Currently HBase implementation uses GenericObjectMapper to convert and store 
> values in backend HBase storage. This converts everything into a string 
> representation(ASCII/UTF-8 encoded byte array).
> While this is fine in most cases, it does not quite serve our use case for 
> metrics. 
> So we need to decide how are we going to encode and decode metric values and 
> store them in HBase.
