Can we create HBase table using PIG if Yes then How ?

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I am a newbie to PIG and trying to experiment PIG on my own.

As I said is there any way to create HBase table in Hbase using PIG if YES then HOW.

Per suppose I loaded a file which contains text and i filtered the file based on word.

then i need to create table in hbase with the name as the searched word.

Please suggest me.

Pig doesn't support creating hbase table.

Please pre-create table in hbase.
