Building and maintaining an HBase cluster is a complex undertaking, especially if you build your own hardware infrastructure. Leasing from a cloud service such as Amazon EC2 allows you to avoid the expense and complexity of setting up your own hardware, but you’ll still need to know how to install, configure and tune your HBase cluster on top of your leased instances.
But what if you could simply connect to a HBase instance, hosted in a public cloud, and let someone else worry about HBase setup and maintenance? We believe there’s a group of potential HBase users who simply want to connect to a managed HBase cluster and start storing their data.
Another class of customers may be large organizations that want to centralize IT resources within a private cloud: a single company-internal cluster running HBase. Such organizations may have several departments, each of which is a tenant in the private cloud.
Both of these groups of potential HBase users want to keep their data secure in the presence of other tenants of the hosted HBase cluster: they want own their own tables, and provide defined access to users in their department, and perhaps even provide defined access to other tenants.
