Thanks for the explanation, Konstantin. I'm a novice in the Cassandra
and not so familiar with the terminology.
You understood the topology well.
I had a quick look at the Cassandra source code and found that my
query from Hector is translated to a list of read commands(inside
CassandraServer). Single command is for each row key. To be fully
understood, my question was about retrieving all super columns data of
single row key(single read command).
