[solr] DataSource for HBase Tables?

["Sterk, Paul (Contractor)" <Pa...@searshc.com>]

Hi,

 

I have a requirement to use Solr to import data from an HBase table and
index the contents - similar to importing data from a RDBMS.  It looks
like I will need to create an
org.apache.solr.handler.dataimport.DataSource<T>

implementation for HBase to be used by the Data Import Handler
<http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler> .

 

Is this the correct approach?  If it is, has someone created a
DataSource implementation for HBase?

 

Paul

Yes, if you are going to use the Data Import Handler, I would say that is the route to go.  You might also look at using an abstraction like Gora instead of having a dependency directly on HBase.
