Description

Right now, HBaseImportJob has a tight coupling with HBasePutProcessor as the default map processor. It would be good to have it as a configurable parameter through a -D argument as this can enable users to do custom pre processing before the actual transformation of each record to a PUT through the PutTransformer.

This ticket will help performing Hbase UPSERTS using the Apache Phoenix library that needs a meta data look up a priori.
