What's column family name for columns of table created by phoniex create table statement without a specific cf name?

Hi,


    Can we use the HBase APIs to access the raw HBase tables?


Thanks.

To add to what Gabriel said, you can also specify your own default
column family name with the DEFAULT_COLUMN_FAMILY property when you
create your table:
https://phoenix.apache.org/language/index.html#create_table

The default column family name is "0". This is the string containing the
character representation of zero (or in other words, a single byte with
value 48).

And yes, it's possible to read Phoenix tables using the HBase API (although
it's of course a lot easier if you go via Phoenix).
