Thank you very much Ellis, I heard about Brisk two weeks ago and I'm already
checking DataStax web site twice a day waiting for Brisk to come.
It seems that it will be a good solution for us.

Once more question please: the Brisk way of operation need to transfer
intermediate data from Cassandra storage to some sort of Hadoop storage?
Or it's just like that:

[ Cassandra data ] --> [ Hadoop Job Tracker ] --> [ Parallel N-nodes
MapReduce Task ] -->
[ Cassandra storage for temporary results ] --> [ Final 1-Node ReReduce Task
] -->
[ Cassandra storage for final results ]

Thank you for your time,
Teo
