Advanced Patterns for
Data Modeling
In this chapter, we will continue with the fun and educational games that we started
in the previous chapter. I will present you with a problem, challenge you to solve
it, and then show you the solution that I have garnered from experience and by
learning from experts. Feel free to challenge my solution and come up with a better
one. As one sage has said, "Much have I learned from my teachers, more from my
colleagues, but most from my students."
Meanwhile, here are the topics that we will tackle in this chapter:
• Many-to-many relationships in HBase's event time data (keeping track of
what is going on)
• Dealing with transactions
So, let's start.
