Guarantees Provided by HBase
Explore the guarantees HBase provides including atomicity of single-row operations, consistency and linearizable reads, and durability through disk persistence and replication. Learn how these guarantees impact distributed data store reliability and how HBase’s architecture supports efficient, reliable data mutations.

The HBase provides the atomicity, consistency and isolation, and durability guarantee. These guarantees are discussed in detail in the following section:
Atomicity
Operations that mutate a single row are atomic. For example:
- An operation that returns a success code has completely succeeded.
- An operation that returns a failure code has completely failed.
- An operation that times out may have succeeded or may have failed. However, it cannot have partially succeeded or failed.
- This is true even if the mutation crosses multiple column families within a row. This is
