Thanks. The development was started in March. Have shifted through each of the 0.6 releases with no problems so far. The jump to 0.7 creates many opportunities. For example I have use case for dynamic keyspaces that could result in hundreds created per quarter once in production. I'd like to focu

Has there been any benchmarking done on thrift vs avro bindings in 0.7 codebase? If one was about to bring into alpha production in the Jan 2011 timeframe, would going with avro be recommended? If one was to benchmark ... I'd be more interested in benchmarks that measure access to a node that act

Hi, Was just looking at a SSTable file after loading a dataset. The data load has no updates of data but: - Columns can in some rare cases be added to existing super columns - SuperColumns will be added to the same key (but not overwriting existing data). I batch these, but it is quite likely tha

2010-08-30 Thread Terje Marthinussen
Hi, Now that we can make columns families on the fly, it gets interesting to use column families more as part of the data model (can reduce diskspace quite a bit vs. super columns in some cases). However, currently, the column family name validator is pretty strict allowing only word characters a
