Thanks, everyone, and sorry to keep you waiting :-)
We're using Phoenix in lots of different use cases and product areas at
Salesforce:
Product Metrics
Data Archival
Server Metrics and Monitoring
Trending over time-series data
Reporting
I'll go into more detail on a future post at my blog:
http://phoenix-hbase.blogspot.com. Was thinking to start with the topic
of "Performance Tuning of Phoenix (i.e. what are all the knobs and
dials)", then "How to add your own built-in function". I folks have
other topics of interest drop me a line over there.
Regards,
James

Congrats guys !!! This is something that was sorely missing in what I am
trying to build... will definitely try it out... just out of curiosity,
what kind of projects/tools at SalesForce uses this library ?

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of a new open
source
project, Phoenix, a SQL layer over HBase that powers the HBase use
cases
at
Salesforce.com. We put the SQL back in the NoSQL:
* Available on GitHub at https://github.com/forcedotcom/phoenix
* Embedded JDBC driver implements the majority of java.sql interfaces,
including the metadata APIs.
* Built for low latency queries through parallelization, the use of
native HBase APIs, coprocessors, and custom filters.
* Allows columns to be modelled as a multi-part row key or key/value
cells.
* Full query support with predicate push down and optimal scan key
formation.
* DDL support: CREATE TABLE, DROP TABLE, and ALTER TABLE for
adding/removing columns.
* Versioned schema repository. Snapshot queries use the schema that
was in place when data was written.
* DML support: UPSERT VALUES for row-by-row insertion, UPSERT SELECT
for mass data transfer between the same or different tables, and
DELETE for deleting rows.
* Limited transaction support through client-side batching.
* Single table only - no joins yet and secondary indexes are a work in
progress.
* Follows ANSI SQL standards whenever possible
* Requires HBase v 0.94.2 or above
* BSD-like license
* 100% Java
