Thank you James. Unfortunately, I am using 4.5.1 and moving up might take some 
time. In that case, I assume creating a single column, single row table would 
be better? 
Thanks again.

In the latest Phoenix release (4.5.2), you can just do the following, as the 
FROM clause is now optional:SELECT CURRENT_TIME()

Hi,
How can I get the current time from Hbase? 
I can use Phoenix function current_time(). One way would be to query this 
column against any table as - SELECT CURRENT_TIME() AS TIME FROM TABL LIMIT 1; 
Or, I could possibly create a single row, single column table and query against 
that table for current time.
Is there a better way than how I am describing it above? 
Thanks,Sumit
