AlaSQL vs HBase: What are the differences?
Developers describe AlaSQL as "JavaScript SQL Database for Browser and Node.js *". Open source SQL database for Javascript with a strong focus on query speed and datasource flexibility for relational data, schemaless data, and graph data. Works in your browser, Node.js and Cordova. Handles both traditional relational tables and nested JSON data (NoSQL). Export, store, and import data from localStorage, IndexedDB, and Excel. On the other hand, *HBase** is detailed as "The Hadoop database, a distributed, scalable, big data store". Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, column-oriented store modeled after Google' Bigtable: A Distributed Storage System for Structured Data by Chang et al. Just as Bigtable leverages the distributed data storage provided by the Google File System, HBase provides Bigtable-like capabilities on top of Apache Hadoop.
AlaSQL and HBase can be categorized as "Databases" tools.
AlaSQL and HBase are both open source tools. It seems that AlaSQL with 4.51K GitHub stars and 438 forks on GitHub has more adoption than HBase with 2.91K GitHub stars and 2.01K GitHub forks.
