sorting columns by time

2013-06-24 Thread Bill Hastings
Hi All I have a requirement where I need to have my columns sorted by the creation time. However I would like to have my own naming scheme for the columns and not use TimeUUID as column names. Please advice as to how I can achieve this in Cassandra as this has been pretty confusing to me.

Bloom Filters in Cassandra

Bootstrap code path

Could someone please tell me where I should start looking at code to understand how cassandra bootstrap process works? I am sure it is complicated but I have time. Also is my understanding correct that the new nodes that are added are not joining the ring till the bootstrap process is complete i.e

How does NetworkStrategy work?

Range scan

2011-08-26 Thread Bill Hastings
How does range scan work in Cassandra? Does the read of a key perform the read across all the SSTables that contain the key and return the row or are SSTables processed sequentially? If I have a key k and its columns are spread across N SSTables then does the read of key k return the row with all t

I was wondering if the datastax folks could please share their settings for the thrift build. We would like to make some additions/changes to thrift and have basic build issues. Not much support in their avenues it looks like. -- Cheers Bill

Hi All Memory utilization reported by JCOnsole for Cassandra seems to be much lesser than that reported by top ("RES" memory). Can someone explain this? Maybe off topic but would appreciate a response. -- Cheers Bill
