Hi,

To process the data in Hbase. You can have different options.

1. Java program using Hbase api;
2. MapReduce program;
3. High-level languages, such as Hive or Pig (built on top of MapReduce);
4. Phoenix also a High-level language (built based on coprocessor).

which one you should use depends on your requirements.
