This corresponds with my thoughts, but I don't see the issue with high
cardinality columns. In worst case you get potentially as many rows in the
index as in the indexed cf (each having one column).

Each index you define on the source CF is created using an internal CF
that has as its key the value of the column it's indexing, and as its
columns, all the keys of all the rows in the source CF that have that
value. So if all your rows in your source CF have the same value, then
your index cf
Txs Jeremiah,
But I am not sure I am following " number of columns could be equal to
number of rows ". Is native index implemented as one cf shared over all
the indexes (one row in the idx CF corresponding to one index) or is there
an internal index cf per index?. My (potential wrong) mindset was
The limitation is because number of columns could be equal to number of rows.
If number of rows is large this can become an issue.
