Also remember you might be able to convert to a tall table. Row keys can be
compound and you can do partial left matches on them. Eg:

Userid:timestamp:eventid

now you have a tall table. Do prefix matches on the userid you want and you
get results in chronological order.

You can build equivalent indexes in hbase as in sql. You may find a design
like this alieviates the need for extremely wide rows.

Good luck!

That might be a good idea but you might be able to redesign you layout of
the table
using a different key then the current one worth barnstorming.

Sorry I forgot to mention the overflow then overflows into new row keys per
10,000 column entries ...
