Summary

In this chapter, we discussed schema designing basics, the data model of HBase, and data model operations that we can perform on an HBase table.

We also focused on designing different types of row keys, naming preferences, and suggestions for better optimization. The chapter also covers different use cases and how a schema can be designed based on it. There was a section that discussed namespaces and versioning of the records. In the next chapter, we will discuss the administration tasks and processes in HBase in detail.
