Apache Durability

[Anirudh Ranganath]

Anyone using Apache's Durability while increasing/ decreasing counts or other fields?

http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/client/Durability.html

HBase has convenient functions to increment/decrement values within, and has the ability to specify what should happen in a fail scenario using the Durability flags. I was unable to really understand what level of durability to use here, and wonder if anyone used this or have any suggestions. I need a thread safe way to increment counts.
