Higher Availability, Increased Scale and Enhanced Security on Apache HBase
Episode #21 of the Podcast was a talk with Michael Stack, Lars Hofhansl and Andrew Purtell.
Having these guests from the Apache HBase PMC allowed us to talk about HBase 0.96, 0.98, some use cases, HBaseCon and 1.0.
The highlights from 0.96 where around stability and longer term scale (moving all internal data exchange and persistence to protobufs).
0.98 introduced some exciting new security features and a new HFile format with both encryption at rest and cell level security labels.
HBaseCon has all new speakers and new use cases with new and familiar faces listening onward. A must attend if you can make it.
1.0 is focusing on SLA and more inmemorry database features and general cleanup.
