Big Data - Hadoop 

Email me if you would like an Access Database.
We took this material from a description of the Hbase Data Model, which says :-
  • "In HBase, data is stored in tables, which have rows and columns.
    This is a terminology overlap with relational databases (RDBMSs), but this is not a helpful analogy. (My italics)
    Instead, it can be helpful to think of an HBase table as a multi-dimensional map."

    You can compare this Data Model with our Blogs Data Model.

    It takes a Blog as a "Real Life example" and describes it in the following terms :-
    "A good example on how to demonstrate the HBase data model is a blog because of its simple features and domain. Suppose the following mini-SRS:
  • The blog entries, which consist of a title, an under title, a date, an author, a type (or tag), a text, and comments, can be created and updated by logged in users.
  • The users, which consist of a username, a password, and a name, can log in and log out.
  • The comments, which consist of a title, an author, and text, can be written anonymously by visitors as long as their identity is verified by a captcha."
