[#1]

Does hortonworks provide native JSON support to HBase or has nested json data model?. If so Any resources ? If this question is already answered somewhere,can you please point me that.

Apache HBase does not provide any API around JSON, but you can build your own.

Please take a look at hbase-client/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/JsonMapper.java for example of conversion.
