WAL storage can be expensive, especially if the cell values represented in the edits are large, consisting of blobs or significant lengths of text. Such WALs might need to be kept around for a fairly long time to satisfy replication constraints on a space limited (or space-contended) filesystem. We have a custom dictionary compression scheme for cell metadata that is engaged when WAL compression is enabled in site configuration. This is fine for that application, where we can expect the universe of values and their lengths in the custom dictionaries to be constrained. For arbitrary cell values it is better to use one of the available compression codecs, which are suitable for arbitrary albeit compressible data.

Apache HBase [1] is an open-source, distributed, versioned, column-oriented store modeled after Google' Bigtable: A Distributed Storage System for Structured Data by Chang et al.[2] Just as Bigtable leverages the distributed data storage provided by the Google File System, HBase provides Bigtable-like capabilities on top of Apache Hadoop [3]. To get started using HBase, the full documentation for this release can be found under the doc/ directory that accompanies this README. Using a browser, open the docs/index.html to view the project home page (or browse to [1]). The hbase 'book' at http://hbase.apache.org/book.html has a 'quick start' section and is where you should being your exploration of the hbase project. The latest HBase can be downloaded from an Apache Mirror [4]. The source code can be found at [5] The HBase issue tracker is at [6] Apache HBase is made available under the Apache License, version 2.0 [7] The HBase mailing lists and archives are listed here [8]. The HBase distribution includes cryptographic software. See the export control notice here [9]. 1. http://hbase.apache.org 2. http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable.html 3. http://hadoop.apache.org 4. http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/hbase/ 5. https://hbase.apache.org/source-repository.html 6. https://hbase.apache.org/issue-tracking.html 7. http://hbase.apache.org/license.html 8. http://hbase.apache.org/mail-lists.html 9. https://hbase.apache.org/export_control.html
