Newbie in Phoenix
I just started to discover Phoenix project. It looks pretty awesome.
I don't understand some points, When I create a table, how many are
CFs going to be created?, If I want to divide my data in two CF's, how
could I do it?
If I create a table from Phoenix, I guess that it's pretty hard to
query the table from native way, right?
Any scenario where it could be have more sense to use native-HBase than Phoenix?

Right. Thanks for the correction, James.

FYI, the default column family name is '0'

Guillermo, Phoenix by default puts columns into a CF named '_'. You can
specify a different CF when creating tables or columns like this:
mycf.col1, in which case Phoenix would put "col1" column into "mycf" CF,
creating it if necessary.
