HBase Client and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database Binary Tables

MapR 6.0.x and 6.1 provide Apache HBase-compatible APIs and client interfaces but do not support HBase as an ecosystem component. HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables provide native storage for table data and include high performance and availability, versatile table operations, and streamlined cluster administration. The following APIs and tools are available for HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables:

HBase Client

• After installing the HBase Client, you can use HBase Shell commands to manipulate HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables on a remote machine. See Installing HBase on a Client Node and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database HBase Shell (Binary Tables).
• HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database supports binary tables through the libMapRClient (a library of C APIs) and Apache HBase Java APIs. See Developing Applications for Binary Tables.

HBase REST Gateway

• The HBase REST Gateway allows users to manipulate HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables through the HBase REST API. See Installing the HBase REST Gateway.

HBase Thrift Gateway

• The HBase Thrift Gateway allows users to manipulate HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables through the HBase Thrift API. See Installing the HBase Thrift Gateway.
