> Back when we created the the HBase serializer interface we decided that most people would have to implement their own since they knew their data and generically mapping an event to columns and keys was likely going to be difficult. I have observed that something like the following: https://github.com/brockn/flume-hbase-serializer
> would be useful to users. Basically it's the regex serializer where a single value from the regex match can be used as the key. It might be possible to modify the current regex serializer to behave in this way so as to limit the number of serializers.
