HBase is the Hadoop database. Think of it as a distributed, scalable, big data store.
The main features are:
* Linear and modular scalability.
* Strictly consistent reads and writes.
* Automatic and configurable sharding of tables
* Automatic failover support between RegionServers.
* Convenient base classes for backing Hadoop MapReduce jobs with HBase tables.
* Easy to use Java API for client access.
* Block cache and Bloom Filters for real-time queries.
* Query predicate push down via server side Filters
* Thrift gateway and a REST-ful Web service that supports XML, Protobuf, and binary data encoding options
* Extensible jruby-based (JIRB) shell
* Support for exporting metrics via the Hadoop metrics subsystem to files or Ganglia; or via JMX
