HBase and Netty

Hi

I am just curious to know why HBase uses NIO (if not wrong) rather than
netty for communication . What are the pros and cons of using Netty over
NIO or NIO over Netty.

Thanks

Regards

Hi Stack

Thanks for enplaning. Yes I am aware of Netty using NIO. Going forward do
we have plans for using Netty or in a better way to put using Netty will be
any help for hbase or hadoop.

Thanks

Our transport was inherited. It is basically Hadoop's. Our transport is
also from a time before the Netty hegemony. Our transport is up for a refit
if anyone is up for it (Mighty Lewis has a POC on grpc that would be sweet
to carry forward).

Netty uses NIO so not sure on your NIO over Netty and its flip question.

Thanks,
