Yes Mohammad. Smarter way like this is needed.. I was telling that even if the full JSON is stored as a column value it will be possible to achive what Panshul needs. :) But a full table scan will not be acceptable I guess.
As Ted suggested pls check Panthera also. Panthera seems to use Hive HBase integration in a smart way. -Anoop- __________________________________ From: Mohammad Tariq [donta...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2013 7:08 PM To: user@hbase.apache.org Subject: Re: Hbase as mongodb @Anoop sir : Does it make sense to extract the timestamp of JSON object beforehand and use it as the rowkey? After that serialize the JSON object and store it in the Hbase cell. Gets would a lot faster then???
