"I didn't said that Hbase should provides built-in data type." Let's see the example. Some DB solutions can be provide only byte[] data type. And then, ... listen to their slogan.. "you can stores own arbitrary data type. look!! this is awesome flexible DB solution. Let's make your own datum and data types. "..... We can think about why they didn't... Also, i think it is not makes any problem. It just makes user can choice, so we can provides convenience. only byte[] VS { integer or character or byte[] or .... , etc} It means that each user needn't develop the exist built-in data type in everytime. was (Author: udanax): Above comment means...
