Description

Current hbase-client dependency version in HBase module is 0.95.1-hadoop1. We should consider upgrading our depedency to support Hadoop 2.

I tried to connect to HBase in Cloudera's Quickstart VM with CDH 5.1.0 from MetaModel, but it is using HBase 0.98.1 (Hadoop 2). I guess, many people start with this popular distribution for a proof of concept, so ensuring that MetaModel can connect to HBase on Hadoop 2 is important.
