Actually, with the great work you guys have been doing and the
resolution of HBASE-1936 by Jimmy Xiang, we'll be able to ease the
installation of Phoenix in our next release. You'll still need to bounce
the regions servers to reload our custom filters and coprocessors, but
you won't need to manually add the phoenix jar to the hbase classpath on
each region server (as long as the installing user has permission to
write into HDFS).
Has there been any discussions on running the HBase server in an OSGi
container? That would potentially even alleviate the need to bounce the
region servers. I didn't see a JIRA, so I created this one:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8607
Thanks,
James

Hi James,
Thanks for joining the thread to provide more feedback and valuable
information about Phoenix. I don't have a big knowledge on it, so better to
see you around.
The only thing I was referring is that applications I sent the links for
are simple jars that you can download locally and run without requiring any
specific rights to install/upload anything on any server. Just download,
click on it.
I might be wrong because I did not try Phoenix yet, but I think you need to
upload the JAR on all the region servers first, and then restart them,
right? People might not have the rights to do that. That's why I thought
Pheonix was overkill regarding the need to just list a table content on a
screen.

Hey JM,
Can you expand on what you mean? Phoenix is a single jar, easily deployed
to any HBase cluster. It can map to existing HBase tables or create new
ones. It allows you to use SQL (a fairly popular language) to query your
data, and it surfaces it's functionality as a JDBC driver so that it can
interop with the SQL ecosystem (which has been around for a while).
Thanks,
James

Using Phoenix for that is like trying to kill a mosquito with an atomic

Few easy to install and use tools which I already tried:
-
http://sourceforge.net/**projects/haredbhbaseclie/**files/<http://sourceforge.net/projects/haredbhbaseclie/files/>
-
http://sourceforge.net/**projects/hbasemanagergui/<http://sourceforge.net/projects/hbasemanagergui/>
-
https://github.com/**NiceSystems/hrider/wiki<https://github.com/NiceSystems/hrider/wiki>
There might be other, but those one at least are doing the basic things to
look into you tables.

Maybe Phoenix
(http://phoenix-hbase.**blogspot.com/<http://phoenix-hbase.blogspot.com/>)
is what you are
looking for.

Subject: Re: querying hbase
I haven't tried that because I don't know how to. Still I think I am
looking for a nice GUI interface that can take in HBase connection info
and
help me view the data something like pgadmin (or its php version), sql
developer, etc

The shell allows you to use filters just like the standard HBase API but
with jruby syntax. Have you tried that or that is too painful and you
want
a simpler tool ?
