i think the quesiton you started out with was about using php & cassandra. the underlying cassandra configuration and implementation shouldn't change if you decide to go with pycassa, hector or phpcassa ... the thrift interface is suitably abstracted by these...
what i'm not entirely happy with in using php versus java/hector is that there isn't any connection pooling. maybe that's just me and my poor skills. how large or small my cassandra instances are and the configuration of cassandra are entirely unrelated to the tier that sits above thrift. that's my feeling.... -sd On Thu, Feb 17, 2011 at 2:24 PM, ruslan usifov <ruslan.usi...@gmail.com>wrote: > > > 2011/2/17 Sasha Dolgy <sdo...@gmail.com> > >> Developing on win7 w/single cassandra node.
