Hello, I have been working in the last weeks on a connector to use HBase in Apache Beam (the evolution of Google’s Dataflow model), and it was finally merged today.
https://github.com/apache/beam/tree/master/sdks/java/io/hbase This message is a call for those interested on using HBase with Apache Beam to try it and report any issue or additional need not covered by the current version of the IO. I will be more than happy to address any issue. Of course, for the more hardcore HBase contributors, I wouldn’t mind if some of you guys could take a look and give me feedback on stuff I can improve (or even better if you are interested to contribute your ideas/improvements in our community). Finally I want to thank you guys for your work on HBase, it was really nice to use your APIs, and HBaseTestingUtility was a life-saver to test my implementation. Thanks, Ismaël Mejía ps. I don’t know if Solomon Duskis still follows this mailing list, but just in case, thanks a lot Solomon, your ideas for Google’s Cloud Dataflow really had a profound influence on my implementation.
