Hi all I'm using cassandra 1.1.9 I have this columnFamily, created with hector API. Here is its cql2 descrition.
CREATE TABLE TDF ( KEY bigint PRIMARY KEY ) WITH comment='' AND comparator='CompositeType(org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.LongType,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.LongType,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.LongType,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type)' AND read_repair_chance=1.000000 AND gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND default_validation=text AND min_compaction_threshold=4 AND max_compaction_threshold=32 AND replicate_on_write='true' AND compaction_strategy_class='SizeTieredCompactionStrategy' AND compression_parameters:sstable_compression='SnappyCompressor'; - I must insert a lot of sorted data (about 100 per second) and i'm using composite keys as column name. - Almost all datas are written on columns under the same row key Question? I understand row partitioning, and understood that all columns will be on the same row, so on the same partitioner (so on the same machine) As columnsFamilies have limitations of 2 billions cells per partitioner, will the CF limited to 2 billions entries? Thanks! note: my english is not so good, feel free to ask me questions if needed -- ----------------------------------------------------- Jean Paul Adant - Créative-Ingénierie jean.paul.ad...@gmail.com
