Installing the REST Server using Cloudera Manager

You can use the HBase REST API to interact with HBase services, tables, and regions using HTTP endpoints. You must manually install the REST Server only in a CDP Private Cloud Base deployment. The REST Server service is automatically added to the Data Hub cluster in a CDP Public Cloud deployment.
