Data storage component

HBase is a column store-based NoSQL database solution. HBase's data model is very similar to Google's BigTable framework. HBase can efficiently process random and real-time access in a large volume of data, usually millions or billions of rows. HBase's important advantage is that it supports updates on larger tables and faster lookup. The HBase data store supports linear and modular scaling. HBase stores data as a multidimensional map and is distributed. HBase operations are all MapReduce tasks that run in a parallel manner.

We will cover the concept of HBase in greater detail in Chapter 5, Storage Component—HBase.
