Hi Vaibhav, For scanner based searching, you can use a column based filter on the scanner. See http://hadoop.apache.org/hbase/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/filter/ColumnValueFilter.html
For indexed based searching, you can consider building secondary indexes on your data. See http://hadoop.apache.org/hbase/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/client/tableindexed/package-summary.html Hope this helps, - Andy > From: Vaibhav Puranik <vpura...@gmail.com> > Subject: Secondary searching > To: hbase-user@hadoop.apache.org > Date: Monday, March 30, 2009, 3:02 PM > Does HBase 0.19.1 support any kind of secondary searching? > Can I do something similar to "where > columnfamily:qualifier = 'some value'" > in HBase? > > Regards, > Vaibhav
