Not to be too pedantic, but you're misunderstanding how to use
cassandra. When we talk about 'n' we mean the number of rep
Hi Maifi,
This is the expected behaviour for updating a value - the "newest" value
always wins in the event of a conflict (e.g. after two partitions converge).
Your use case is that of incrementing counters, which is not something that
is easily solved in Cassandra at the moment.
There are issue
Hi Gary
Thanks for your reply.
Say, I am keeping track of total expenditure . Say, at time t, the
value was 100. Now, at t+1,
say my 10 node network got partitioned and become two disjoint set S1
(node 1,2,3,4,5,)and S2 (node 6,7,8,9,10).
1) At time t+2: For incoming value 20 , it uses set S1 and
>From a cluster perspective there is no locking, atomicity or

write doesn't happen, the write is failed, but the 5 writes that
happened stay.
The code is in two places. StorageProxy.mutate (and mutateBlocking)
is where the local
Hi
How is the locking implemented in cassandra? Say, I have 10 nodes and
I want to write to 6 nodes which is (n+1)/2.
Will it lock 6 nodes first and then start writing? Or will it write
one by one and see if it can write to 6 nodes.
How is this implemented? What package does this locking?
Thanks in
