You should iterate through them, get 200 then go get the next 200 and so on.
Also if checking a bounding box to another.. perhaps try sorting them so you 
could start looking at both ends, perhaps make the iteration smaller until 
match somehow?
Just my simple coins, also upgrading will probably be needed to iterate through 
RP because of bugs. But that should be simple enough to 6.4

Ämne: Help with getting Key range with some column limitations

Hi,

We are trying to implement Cassandra to replace one of our biggest SQL tables, 
and so far we got it working.

However, for testing I'm using Cassandra 0.6.2, Java and Pelops. (Pelops not 
that important for my question) and need suggestions on how to solve a problem 
retrieving a key range based on the following.

<Keyspace Name="AIS">
        <ColumnFamily Name="Location"
        ColumnType="Super"
        CompareWith="LongType"
        KeysCached="100%"
        CompareSubcolumnsWith="UTF8Type" />
     ...
    </Keyspace>

The super column got columns for longitude and latitude.

 1. Need to get get max long number for key
 2. The key should also have supercolumns latitude and longitude column 
intersecting (inside) with a given boundingbox.

Currently I'm doing like this


        KeyRange keyRange = new KeyRange();
        keyRange.setStart_key("");
        keyRange.setEnd_key("");
        keyRange.setCount(700);

And checking every row in db if it match my bounding box.

But there are a lot more than 700 keys.. and if i set a higher count, the 
get_range_slice get a Timeout Exception.

Any ideas?

Best Regards
Jone
