[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-8818) [thrift2] Update Thrift2 to supersede Thrift1 and equal REST

["Itay Bittan (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8818?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17332986#comment-17332986 ] 

Itay Bittan commented on HBASE-8818:
------------------------------------

Sorry for asking here, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere else.

I am using HBase 0.94.22 with Python (mainly add/increments rows) and I might upgrade to the latest HBase version in the future.

I wonder whether to use Thrift1 or Thrift2 and here is what I understand so far:

+*Thrift1*+

*pros:* 
 * support increments in batch.
 * supported by [HappyBase|https://github.com/python-happybase] which also has async Python implementation + batch for increments.

*cons:*
 * older implementation?
 * is it supported in the latest HBase version?
 * slower? (not sure why thrift2 was introduced)

 

+*Thrift2*+

*pros:*
 * new implementation
 * only support for new HBase versions?

*cons:*
 * no Python package, need to use Thrift [wrapper|https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/master/hbase-examples/src/main/python/thrift2/DemoClient.py].
 * Doesn't support multiple increments? (batch)

 

I will appreciate any piece of information to make the best choice, Thanks in advance.

> This is an umbrella issue, listing all issues from Thrift1 that need to be applied to Thrift2 (those that have only be applied to the former but should be in both), and what else is missing for a fully functional Thrift2 API.
