More Details About Apache HBase 0.92.0
Jonathan Hsieh provides a summary of the new features in HBase 0.92.0 by splitting them into user features:
- HFile v2, a new more efficient storage format
- Faster recovery via distributed log splitting
- Lower latency region-server operations via new multi-threaded and asynchronous implementations.
operator features:
- An enhanced web UI that exposes more internal state
- Improved logging for identifying slow queries
- Improved corruption detection and repair tools
and developer features:
- Coprocessors
- Build support for Hadoop 0.20.20x, 0.22, 0.23.
- Experimental: offheap slab cache and online table schema change
Earlier today when covering the HBase 0.92.0 release, I wrote that coprocessors are the hightlight of this release. I’ll take that back. Way too many interesting features in HBase 0.92.0 to highlight just one of them.
