I heard cassandra may be going the direction of removing super column and users are starting to just use prefixes in front of the column.
The reason I ask is I was going the way of only using supercolumns and then many tables were fixed with just one supercolumn per row as the structure for that table was simple....this kept the api we have on top of Hector extremely simple not having to deal with columns vs. supercolumns. What are people's thoughts on this? Dealing in columnfamilies where some have supercolumns and some don't I think personally is a painful way to go.....going with just one way and sticking with it sure makes the apis easier and it's much easier to apply AOP type stuff to that ONE insert method rather than having two insert methods. So what is the direction of casssandra project and the recommendation? thanks, Dean
