Hi there-
I'd recommend reading this...
http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#datamodel
... and focusing on what is available in the HBase client API before worrying
about hbase-util, which are wrappers on the same HBase client API.

Hey Doug,
Thanks a lot for the reply. But is there any sample/example code available
that does the same?
I found this code in code.google.com, but it looks more like it is putting
the avi file in HDFS instead of HBase.

On TRUNK, usually all tests pass but intermittently some are broken.
The best gauge for the current state of trunk can be found here,
https://builds.apache.org//job/HBase-TRUNK/, on the Apache CI server.
As J-D says, there is nothing special that you need to do to run the
tests other than 'mvn cle

Right, this is what Lucene does and should work fine for HBase. Eg,
the FST will enable a denser index of keys at the same storage costs.

I'm not sure what you mean there. We can create a total HFile block
key index that has pointers to within blocks, eg, they'll store a
block index int, and a position (within the block) int. Where would
When I thought about it, I didn't think cross-block compression would
be a good idea - this is because you want to be able to decompress
each block independently of each other. Perhaps a master HFile
dictionary or something.
