Hello Tariq, Thank you for the reply.
My concern is that I have been working with MongoDB, but now I am switching over to Hadoop and I want to use HBase for certain reasons. I was wondering if I can store Json files in Hbase in a way that I can query the Json files in Hbase as I can in Mongodb. Such as I can directly say Mongodb to get me all the objects having timestamp value of xxx date where timestamp is a field in Json objects stored in Mongodb. Can I perform similar operations on Hbase or does it have another approach for doing similar operations. I do not have much knowledge on Hbase yet. I am beginning to learn it, but I just want to be sure i am investing my time in the right direction. Thank you so much for the help, Regards, Panshul.
