HBase does not fully support composite keys. But you can use PrefixFilter and FuzzyRowFilter with some limitations if your query involves part of key. http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/filter/PrefixFilter.html http://hbase.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/filter/FuzzyRowFilter.html
