Nothing is updated in place in HBase. All write operation create new versions.
Have a look at this: http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#datamodel

HTable is the usual java interface to interact with a table in HBase.  You
can see the api for that here:
http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/client/HBaseAdmin.html

The Ref guide has a more comprehensive overview of the client here:

You can use the shell too

Update is again a put. Incase of multiple version support the older values
could be retained.
