Hello Serega, We use it this way here via a python image manipulation service named Thumbor https://github.com/thumbor/thumbor/ + a pluggin of my own : https://github.com/thumbor/thumbor/wiki/Plugins#thumbor_hbase-by-damien-hardy
One big advantage is you can use it with lazy loading plugin HBase as storage and filer or http source as loader this way images will populate Hbase at the first call if missing in HBase. keys are spread on cluster with md5 prefix to avoid hotspot.
