A bit more context: Older Phoenix clients are somewhat forward-compatible with newer servers, but newer clients are definitely not backwards compatible with older servers. see https://phoenix.apache.org/upgrading.html You also need to make sure that you do not try to use a client that includes a newer HBase with an older HBase cluster.
With Phoenix Query Server, you can run a (or more) query server per cluster, and use the same thin client to connect to each one.
