Need a way to have two different types of indexes. Key: aTextKey ColumnName: aTextColumnName:55 Value: ""
Key: aTextKey ColumnName: 55:aTextColumnName Value: "" All the valuable information is stored in the column name itself. Above two can be in different column families... Queries: Given a key, page me a list of numerical values sorted on aTextColumnName Given a key, page me a list of text values sorted on a numerical value This approach would require left padding the numeric value for the second index so cassandra can sort on column names correctly. Is there any other way to accomplish this?
