Hi there,

We have some data saved in hbase on HDFS. We know using the following command can get the file size of each hbase table: hadoop fs -dus /hbase/tableName.

For mysql, we can get exact data size for each table using sql queries displayed on http://www.mkyong.com/mysql/how-to-calculate-the-mysql-database-size/. We can also get file disk size using command like: du -s /path/to/datafile. Yet the data size gotten using sql query is quite smaller than the file disk size gotten using du -s. We think the above hadoop command also get file disk size, not the data size in database. So we are wondering whether there is a way like msql query running on hbase shell to get the data size in Hbase. Thanks a lot!
