Titan (https://github.com/thinkaurelius/titan) is an example of a blueprints stack graph implementation that works over HBase or Cassandra. The distinct limitation/restriction is that it supports vertex-oriented queries, i.e. constrained to subgraphs. To do full-graph queries/analysis, you use Fanus, a related project, that implements your query as a map-reduce job that leverages the Hadoop-HBase connection. I think that gives some hints to the limitations and challenges of building generalized graph query over HBase.
