Hi Guys, I have started understanding Cassandra and am working with it recently.
I have created two Column Families. For CF1, a write is an insert into a unique row with all column values. Eg: Key Col1 Col2 Col3 k1 c11 c12 c13 k2 c21 c22 c23 For CF2. a write is an insert into a time stamped column of a row. Eg: Key timeCol1 timeCol2 k1 ct11 k1 ct12 k2 ct21 k2 ct22 I am using YCSB and using thrift based *client.batch_mutate()* call. For CF1, i send all column vals for a row through the call. For CF2, i send the new column vals for a row. Now say opscenter reports the "write requests" as say 1000 *operations*/sec when a record count is say 10000 records. OpsCenter API docs say 'Write Requests" as "requests per second". What does an operation/request mean from opscenter perspective? Does it mean unique row inserts across all column families ? Does it mean count of each mutations for a row ? How does opscenter identify a unique operation/request ? Is it related or dependent on the row count or mutation count of batch_mutate() call ? >From application perspective an operation means differently for both column families. Can some one guide me ? Thanks, Arun
