does phoenix have a thrift or restful api?

[#1]

Does phoenix have a thrift or restful api to interface with it. I found this code on restful api with phoenix but it is not in the HDP stack. Do i need to put this up as a idea?

have a look at the phoenix query server. It's a beta feature in HDP, but is installable via Ambari. When you pick which nodes should be clients, datanodes, nodemanagers, etc, you can check the Phoenix Query Server box.

This!

Query server essentially is built on Apache Calcite and jas a JSON API interface.

I would think however that its way too much work to write a client using a REST API over this. If you want to create a web application, something like jquery with the jdbc client sounds much more appealing.

( Or go against HBase directly )
