Hi Alex, Is there a publicly visible roadmap somewhere for CDH3 please? http://archive.cloudera.com/docs/cdh3-top.html doesn't yet mention HBase but I gather it is actually in there. I am curious what Hive and Sqoop integration you might have setup out of the box. I could imagine a CDH3 installation that offers Sqoop to HBase for an initial bootstrapping, and Hive on HBase as a really good entry point for a lot of people.
