I'd like to write my own ActiveRecord adapter for the HBase database since none currently exist. However, I've been searching for a while online and can't find any good resources on how to write an ActiveRecord adapter. How would you go about doing this, or are there any links you can recommend?

+6  A: 

I think the easiest thing to do is go to the source.

The rails trunk has adapters for mysql, postgres and sqlite, which you could base your adapter on. abstract_adapter.rb is pretty short and fairly straight forward to implement.
