Preface
As Hadoop has grown into mainstream popularity, so has its vibrant ecosystem, including widely used tools such as Hive, Spark, Impala, and HBase. This book focuses on one of those tools: Apache HBase, a scalable, fault-tolerant, low-latency data store that runs on top of the Hadoop Distributed Filesystem (HDFS). HBase merges Hadoop scalability with real-time data serving. At scale, HBase allows for millions of read and write operations per second from a single cluster, while still maintaining all of Hadoop’s availability guarantees. HBase quickly grew in popularity and now powers some of the largest Hadoop deployments on the planet—it is used by companies such as Apple, Salesforce.com, and Facebook.
However, getting started with HBase can be a daunting task. While there are numerous resources that can help get a developer started (including mailing lists, an online book, and Javadocs), information about architecting, designing, and deploying real-world applications using Apache HBase is quite limited. That’s where this book comes in.
The goal of the book is to bring to life real-world HBase deployments. Each use case discussed in this book has been deployed and put into production. This doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvement, or that you won’t need to modify for your particular task, but it does show how things have actually been done.
The book also includes robust coverage of troubleshooting (Part III). Our goal is to help you avoid common deployment mistakes. ...
