A list of all potential problems when using byte ordered partitioner?

2014-06-07 Thread Kevin Burton
I believe I'm aware of the problems that can arise due to the byte ordered partitioner. Is there a full list of ALL the problems? I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. The main problems I'm aware of are: ... "natural" inserts where the key is something like a u

sure I understand why you consider Byte Ordered Partitioner relevant, isn't what matters for compressibility generally the uniformity of data within rows in the SSTable, not the uniformity of their row keys? =Rob

So I see that Cassandra doesn't support bmdiff/vcdiff. Is this primarily because most people aren't using the ordered partitioner? bmdiff gets good compression by storing similar content next to each page on disk. So lots of HTML content would compress well. but if everything is be

Hi, I was trying to implement my own ordered partitioner and got into problems. The current DecoratedKey is using a ByteBufferUtil.compareUnsigned for comparing the key. I was thinking of having a signed comparison, so I thought of making my own DecoratedKey, Token and Partitioner. That way I

I am currently using Cassandra 0.6.2 on four virtual nodes in two different data centers (A, B). My initial testing used the Random Partitioner and everything behaved as expected. I moved to the Ordered Partitioner using SHA256 hashes as the keys and subsequently these are the tokens (If the
