How to check the number of rows in an HBase table?

To view the number of rows in an HBase table, you can use the count command in the HBase Shell.

To begin with, start the HBase Shell. Enter the following command in the terminal:

hbase shell

Next, scan the table using the scan command and use the count parameter to get the number of rows. For example, if you want to check the number of rows in a table named mytable, you can input the following command:

count 'mytable'

After executing the command, the HBase Shell will return the number of rows in the table.
