|INT|Is a synonym for INTEGER|

-(263-1) to 263-1|
|INTEGER|Stores a span of time|
|REAL|Is a synonym for SMALLFLOAT|

> A built-in data type is a fundamental data type that the hbase shell defines.
> (character strings, scalars, ranges, arrays, ... , etc)
> If you need a specialized data type that is not currently provided as a 
> built-in type, 
> you are encouraged to write your own user-defined data type using UDF(not yet 
> implemented).
> (or contribute it for distribution in a future release of hbase shell)
