Prefix compression would lower the cost of storing value in rowkey.
It was inspired by long rowkey, short value schema design.
PREFIX and FAST_DIFF encodings are most often used.

This is an important question in terms of schema design. Given the choice of
storing a value in column vs rowkey, I would many times want to store a value
in a rowkey if I foresee it being used for constr
When the number of columns (qualifiers) are more yes it can impact the
performance. In HBase every where the storage will be in terms of KVs. The key
will be some thing like rowkey+cfname+columnname+TS...
So when u have 26 cells in a put then there will be repetition of many bytes in
the key.(O
