This is getting close to "HBase in a box" -
http://search-hadoop.com/m/p68C12nb7Hn (2010):
"HBase in a box" is like "dynamic equilibrium", or "virtual reality", or "jumbo
shrimp"... :-)
> Embed HDFS into HBase

> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Lars George

> HBase is often a bit more involved to get going. We already have the option
> to host ZooKeeper for very small clusters. We should have the same for HDFS.
> The idea is that it adjusts replication based on the number of nodes, i.e.
> from 1 to 3 (the default), so that you could start with a single node and
> grow the cluster from there. Once the cluster reaches a certain size, and the
> admin decides to split the components, we should have a why to export the
> proper configs/settings so that you can easily start up an external HDFS
> and/or ZooKeeper, while updating the HBase config as well to point to the new
> "locations".
> The goal is to start a fully operational HBase that can grow from single
> machine to multi machine clusters with just a single daemon on each machine.
