Hi Guys, Thanks for sharing your experiences and valuable links.... these are really helpful.
But I want to do ETL and then wanted to load data in Cassandra. I have link 10-15 various source system, presently daily ETL jobs runs load data in our database which is Netezza. How can I do this in Cassandra, like what if my target data base is source are the same (MySQL, Oracle, Netezza..etc)? -Sonia On Sat, Aug 7, 2010 at 7:46 PM, Zhong Li <z...@voxeo.com> wrote: > Yes, I use OrderPreservngPartitioner, the token considers > datacenter+ip+function+timestamp+recordId+... > > > On Aug 7, 2010, at 10:36 PM, Jonathan Ellis wrote: > > are you using OrderPreservingPartitioner then? >> >> On Sat, Aug 7, 2010 at 10:32 PM, Zhong Li <z...@voxeo.com> wrote: >> >>> Here is just my personal experiences. >>> >>> I recently use Cassandra to implement a system cross 5 datacenters. >>> Because >>> it is impossible to do it in SQL Database at low cost, Cassandra helps. >>> >>> Cassandra is all about indexing, there is no relationship naturally, you >>> have to use indexing to keep all relationships.
