Agenda

HDInsight is the Microsoft implementation of Hadoop ecosystem components in the cloud.

Azure HDInsight deploys and provisions Apache Hadoop clusters in the cloud, providing a software framework designed to manage, analyze, and report on big data with high reliability and availability. 

HDInsight is available on Windows and Linux HDInsight on Linux: A Hadoop cluster on Ubuntu HDInsight on Windows: A Hadoop cluster on Win Server 2012 R2

What is HDInsight

HDInsight provides cluster Types & Configurations for:1) Hadoop2) HBase3) Storm4) Spark (Preview)

Apache HBase is an open-source, NoSQL database that is built on Hadoop and modeled after Google BigTable. 

HBase provides random access and strong consistency for large amounts of unstructured and semistructured data in a schemaless database organized by column families

Data is stored in the rows of a table, and data within a row is grouped by column family. 

 The open-source code scales linearly to handle petabytes of data on thousands of nodes. It can rely on data redundancy, batch processing, and other features that are provided by distributed applications in the Hadoop ecosystem.

HBase shell is your query tool to execute in CRUD commands to a Hbase cluster.

Data can also be managed using the HBase C# API, which provides a client library on top of the HBase REST API.

An HBase database can also be queried by using Hive.
