Comparative Analysis of HBase Data Storage Model and RDBMS for Location based Application

Relational database management system plays important role in the area of storage and management but have limitation on scalability in terms of data as well as number of clients. RDBMS is not suitable for spatial database application and very hard to maintain the system when data becomes too large. Column oriented database such as Hbase overcome this problem by storing large amounts of terabytes of data and providing the system to be fault tolerant and easily available. This paper compares geo-spatial data stores in Hbase Data storage model and RDBMS in terms of real time analysis and high insert throughput on latest location.
