Hi Can we make range search on ID:ID format as this would be treated as single ID by API or can it bifurcate on ':' . If now then how do can we ignore usage of supercolumns where we need to associate 'n' number of rows to a single ID. Like CatID1-> articleID1 CatID1-> articleID2 CatID1-> articleID3 CatID1-> articleID4 How can we map such scenarios with simple column families.
