Hi, Would there be any reason to split a hbase table into smaller entities, or can it grow forever (assuming available disk space)?
Background: We have realtime data (measurements), up to lets say 500,000/s, which consists essentially of timestamp, value, flags. If we distribute the values to different tables (for each tag), it would also mean to insert each of the entries individually, which is a performance killer. If we insert in bulk it is much faster. The question is, are there any downsides to having a hbase table with an extreme size? best regards Jürgen
