In HBase, you can check if a table exists using either the Java API or the HBase shell.

  1. Utilize the Java API:
  2. The code snippet above imports necessary libraries and classes for interacting with an HBase database. It creates a class called CheckTableExists, which includes a main method that checks if a specific table exists in the HBase database and prints the result.
  3. Use HBase shell:
  4. – Check if ‘your_table_name’ exists in the HBase shell.

The above are two methods to check if the form exists, you can choose one that suits your needs.
