Creating Java Apps - Binary Tables

This topics describes the supported Apache HBase Java APIs used for CRUD operations on HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables.

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database supports all of the Apache HBase 1.0 Java APIs, except where noted in this documentation. For a number of critical Java APIs, for filters, and for comparators, this documentation explicitly lists what is supported, rather than what is not supported.

Code written for Apache HBase can be easily ported to use HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables.

HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database binary tables do not support low-level HBase API calls that are used to manipulate the state of an Apache HBase cluster. HBase API calls that are not supported by HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric Database tables report successful completion to allow legacy code written for Apache HBase to continue executing, but do not perform any actual operations.

NOTE
For the list of supported HBase v0.98 APIs, refer to the HBase Java API Support.
