Re: Chunking if size > 64MB

AFAIK there is no server side chunking of column values. This link http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/FAQ#large_file_and_blob_storage is just suggesting in the app you do not store more than 64MB per column. Cheers - Aaron Morton Freelance Cassandra Developer @aaronmorton http://

Chunking if size > 64MB

2011-06-29 Thread A J
>From what I read, Cassandra allows a single column value to be up-to 2GB but would chunk the data if greater than 64MB. Is the chunking transparent to the application or does the app need to know if/how/when the chunking happened for a specific column value that happened to be > 64MB. Thank you.
