Hi,
Will HBase work reasonably for small data sets ? E.g. for 10s or 100s of
Gigas of data? Would it make sense to use HBase to store and access them ?
I was thinking HDFS and M/R have a overhead thus won't perform well for
small amounts of data. But say I use HBase w/o MapReduce (get, set, scan
only) and use local file system underneath, will I get reasonable
performance ?
It won't look 'reasonable' if stacked against a RDBMS. Might be 'fast
enough' though?
Scanning has been recently improved (4-fold is what I'm seeing) in
trunk. Coming batching facility should improve writes similarly.
Random reads continue to suffer but might be OK going against local
filesystem?
Thanks Naama,
