Hello,

I'm designing some schema for my use case and I'm considering what will be better: rows or columns. Here's what I need - my schema actually looks like this (it will be used for keeping not large pdf files or single pages of larger document)
table files:
    family "info":
        "info:pg" - keeps page number
        "info:id" - sender ID
        "info:nm" - pdf name
        ***
    family "data":
        "data:blob" - blob of pdf file

Now let's get back to ***: each user can add multiple of additional properties ("name" - "value"), but let's assume that every user will be so creative that there won't be two same names. I don't know how solve this problem: each "name" will be new column ("info:name") or I should try to do this like it is said here: http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#schema.smackdown.rowscols and make new row for earch property?

K.
