About Apache HBase
Apache HBase is an open-source project under the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), providing Bigtable-like capabilities on top of Apache Hadoop. The distribution is available under the Apache License, version 2.0, and includes cryptographic software as noted in the license and export control information.
HBase, which can be downloaded from their official website, is modeled after Google's Bigtable paper by Chang et al. It utilizes the distributed data storage provided by Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). The project relies on mailing lists for notices and discussions; the mailing lists and archives are accessible from their website.
Contributions to HBase can be made through submitting requests at the self-service Jira page, after registering with Apache Software Foundation. Users should select 'hbase' as the ASF project they want to file a ticket to ensure proper handling of their request. Please note that there may be a delay in processing these requests due to manual handling, potentially lasting up to a week.
To start using HBase, users are encouraged to explore the full documentation available under the doc/ directory accompanying this README. Users can view the project homepage by opening docs/index.html in their browser or visiting the official website. The HBase project has a comprehensive 'quick start' guide, which is an excellent starting point for newcomers.
