Misty Stanley-Jones updated HBASE-11476:
----------------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
I added some links to resources that explain it better (IMO) than the Ref Guide
does. Then I tried to expand the existing doc (the Data Model chapter
introduction, Conceptual View, and Physical View sections) to be more clear,
including adding a second row to the table along with all the versions of
com.cnn.www, because it wasn't very clear to me that the "rows" there were just
versions of the same row.
Review and feedback is appreciated. I definitely think we can do better here. I
think we should lose the tabular view altogether -- I find the JSON-esque view
to be much clearer. But it is also possible I have really misunderstood
something and gotten something horribly wrong.
By the way I started delving into this when I wanted to expand the docs about
gets and scans and realized I didn't understand enough about the data model
yet. I suspect I am not the only one!

> Could use some updating and expansion to emphasize the differences between
> HBase and an RDBMS. I found

> which is just excellent and we should link to it.
