Anticlock provides random, real time read/write access to your Big Data with the use of Apache HBase. Apache HBase provides Bigtable-like capabilities on top of Hadoop and HDFS. It was created for hosting very large tables, making it a great choice to store multi-structured or sparse data.
HBase is a data model that is similar to Google’s big table designed to provide quick random access to huge amounts of structured data. It leverages the fault tolerance provided by the Hadoop File System (HDFS).
Benefits of Apache HBase are as follows:
It provides linear scalability and replication.
It provides strong consistency.
HBase enables really fast read and writes with scalability.
A non-relational (NoSQL) database that runs on top of HDFS
