What is the best practice on deciding the number of column families for HBase table?..

Answer / Vijaylaxmi

The ideal number of column families for an HBase table depends on factors such as data access patterns, consistency requirements, and the size of the tables. As a general rule, fewer column families are better to minimize overheads; however, too few can lead to overloading columns with unrelated data. A good practice is to design column families based on the natural grouping of related attributes.
