+# Storm HBase Integration Example
+
+This is a very simple set of topologies that show how to use the
storm-hbase package for accessign HBase from storm.
+
+## HBase Setup
+
+First you need an instance of HBase that is setup and running. If you
have one already you can skip to setting up the table, if not download a copy
from http://archive.apache.org/dist/hbase/1.4.4/ and untar the result into a
directory you want to run it in. Then follow the instructiuons from
https://hbase.apache.org/0.94/book/quickstart.html to setup a standalone HBase
instance. Be aware that when you run `start-hbase.sh` an instance of zookeeper
will also be started. If you are testing using a single node storm cluster you
can skip running zookeeper yourself as the hbase zookeeper instance will work.

Looks like reference guide for HBase 1.2.6 doc is a single page which is
taking super huge latency, but is quickstart page for 0.94 compatible with
1.4.4? There's huge gap between two versions so just would like to check.
