Google's fully-managed Cloud Bigtable service provides an HBase 1.0 and 1.1 compatible client, which should be a drop-in replacement for the hbase-client:

What are your thoughts on how to provide this ? Will you provide the support in a separate repo, similar to what Amazon did for their AWS DyanmoDb repo ? https://github.com/awslabs/dynamodb-titan-storage-backend

Or are you suggesting this be a package inside of Titan ?

Since it should be closely related to the KeyValueStore it seems like making it part of the core package wouldn't hurt anything.
