Interface LoadBalancer

All Superinterfaces:

ConfigurationObserver

All Known Subinterfaces:

RSGroupableBalancer

All Known Implementing Classes:

BaseLoadBalancer, FavoredStochasticBalancer, RSGroupBasedLoadBalancer, SimpleLoadBalancer, StochasticLoadBalancer

public interface LoadBalancer
extends ConfigurationObserver

Makes decisions about the placement and movement of Regions across RegionServers.

Cluster-wide load balancing will occur only when there are no regions in transition and according to a fixed period of a time using balanceCluster(Map).

On cluster startup, bulk assignment can be used to determine locations for all Regions in a cluster.

This class produces plans for the AssignmentManager to execute.
