I'm new to cassandra
How do I find those out? - mainly, the partition params that you asked for.
Others, I think I can figure out.

We don't have any large objects/blobs in the column values - it's all
textual, date-time, numeric and uuid data.

We use cassandra to primarily store segmentation data - with segment type
as partition key. That is again divided into two separate column families;
but they have similar structure.

Columns per row can be fairly large - each segment type as the row key and
associated user ids and timestamp as column value.

Thanks,
Kunal
