title: Is the row key of HBase Table automatically indexed?
body: <p>This may be a silly question - but I couldn't find out how to "index" the row key in Hbase so I am assuming that when HBase puts in the row key they have built-in support to automatically index the table based on the row key - in other words, treating the row key as primary key automatically?</p>
  
  <p>thanks!</p>
