llpind,

        investigate first how you usually access this data. As HBase works best
when accessing data records through a so-called unique row key, it may
change your whole application design.

Many people also put special indexes on different fields of a Hbase
table, just to figure out the relevant row key of a data set as a first
step in a query.

Would need more details to give better advice.
