Chapter 6. HBase Clients

In the previous chapter, we covered the HBase API and its usage for various features. Apart from the API, there are different flavors of clients that can be used with different programming languages to access HBase. This chapter is completely focused on the different clients we can use to access the HBase cluster. We will cover the following topics:

  • The HBase shell
  • Kundera – the object mapper
  • The REST client
  • The Thrift client
  • The Hadoop ecosystem client

Let's start with the HBase shell first.
