My problem is as the following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4790029/hbase-column-wide-scanning-and-fetching Let's say i've created a table
rowkey (attrId+attr_value) //compound key column => doc:doc1, doc:doc2, ...[the qualifier is variable, which depends on the value] when use scan feature, i would fetch 1 row every time inside iterator, what if the column qualifier reach millions entries. how do you loop through that, and will there be a cache issue? thanks. -- Best wishes Gan, Xiyun
