Hello All, I learn hbase almost from papers and books, according to my understanding, HBase is the kind of architecture which is more appliable to a big cluster. We should have many HDFS nodes, and many HBase(region server) nodes. If we only have several severs(5-8), it seems hbase is not a good choice, please correct me if I am wrong. In addition, how many nodes usually we can start to consider the hbase solution and how about the physic mem size and other hardware resource in each node, any reference document or cases? Thanks.
