HBase is a distributed, consistent, sorted key value store. The "sorted" bit
allows for range scans in addition to the point gets that all K/V stores
support. Nothing more, nothing less.
It happens to store its data in HDFS by default, and we provide convenient
input and output formats for map reduce.

Subject: Re: Hbase vs Cassandra
The point is that HBase is part of the Hadoop ecosystem. Not a stand alone
database like Cassandra.
This is one thing that gets lost when people want to compare NoSQL databases /
data stores.
As to Big Data without Hadoop? Well, there’s spark on mesos … :-P
And there are other Big Data systems out there but are not as well known.
Lexus/Nexus had their proprietary system that they’ve been trying to sell …
