REST or Thrift or something else?
Hi HBase users,
Which is the more popular protocol for client applications to connect to
HBase? Is it REST, Thrift, or something else? Thanks in advance for any
feedback,

Why are you moving away from the REST interface?

We use the rest interface as well. However we are moving to the java/jvm
api more and more.

We use the REST interface, but had trouble with leaking zookeeper
connections in 0.90.3 and 0.90.4. The patch in
HBASE-4508<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-4508>appears to
solve the problem.

I would hazard a guess that the Java client is the most utilized, followed
by REST and Thrift. But if your client application isn't in Java then the
Java client obviously won't work.
