The specific issue is I have a fairly large table, which is immutable, and I need to get it in a form where it can be downloaded, page by page, via an API.
This would involve reading the whole table. I'd like to page through it by key order to efficiently read the rows to minimize random reads. It's slightly more complicated then that in that it's a log structured table… basically holding the equivalent of apache logs.. I need to read these out by time and give them to API callers.
