From a performance perspective, there are things Hive can do today (ie,
not dependent on data types) to take advantage of HBase. There’s also
the possibility of an HBase-aware Hive to make use of HBase tables as
intermediate
I don't think Hbase-Hive integration part is that smart, be able to utilize the
index existing in the HBase. But I think it depends on the version you are
using.
From my experience, there are a lot of improvement space in the Hbase-hive
integration, especially push down logic into HBase engine.
The following article about using Klout's Brickhouse library to access an
HBase table as a map through its key might be useful.
