+The HBase connector allows for reading from an HBase cluster.
+The HBase connector allows for writing into an HBase cluster.
+
+The connector can operate in [upsert mode](#update-modes) for exchanging
UPSERT/DELETE messages with the external system using a [key defined by the
query](./streaming/dynamic_tables.html#table-to-stream-conversion).
+
+For append-only queries, the connector can also operate in [append
mode](#update-modes) for exchanging only INSERT messages with the external
system.
+
+To use this connector, add the following dependency to your project:
+
+{% highlight xml %}
+<dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
+ <artifactId>flink-connector-hbase{{ site.scala_version_suffix }}</artifactId>
+ <version>{{site.version }}</version>
+</dependency>
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+The connector can be defined as follows:
+
+<div data-lang="DDL" markdown="1">
+{% highlight sql %}
+CREATE TABLE MyUserTable (
+ hbase_rowkey_name rowkey_type,
+ hbase_column_family_name1 ROW<...>,
