Hbase have low level API, and yes you can consider each as physical operators. You don't have query plan like with SQL. If you want to study query plan in big data over Hbase, you can study trafodion. It is SQL layer on top of Hbase, and there, you will find query plan you can expose doing explain on queries. Hope this make sense, Eric Owhadi

I'm looking for a way to get the plan of hbase's api calls (logical plan / physical plan). Is there such functionality as explain in hbase native client. or can I just consider the methods scan , put , get , filter .... are physical operators. thank you very much for ur help yours sincely Asma ZGOLLI PhD student in data engineering - computer science Email : zgollia...@gmail.com email alt: asma.zgo...@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr <zgollia...@gmail.com>
