Populating an HBase Table

After configuring and starting your system, create an HBase table and add rows to it. For example:
hbase shell

hbase(main):002:0> create 'sample_table', {NAME => 'data'}
hbase(main):002:0> put 'sample_table', 'row1', 'data', 'value'
hbase(main):001:0> put 'sample_table', 'row2', 'data', 'value2'
