             Summary: Run HBase server in an OSGi container
                 Key: HBASE-8607
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8607
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: regionserver
            Reporter: James Taylor


Run the HBase server in an OSGi container to support updating custom filters and coprocessor updates without requiring a region server reboot. Typically, applications that use coprocessors and custom filters also have shared classes underneath, so putting the burden on the user to include some kind of version name in the class is not adequate. Including the version name in the package might work in some cases (at least until dependent jars start to change as well), but is cumbersome and overburdens the app developer.
