Some time ago, I stumbled across this: https://github.com/chrislusf/seaweedfs It is an open source implementation of Facebooks Haystack design.

From my point of view it looks very promising and probably much more resource-friendly for this use case.
Maybe that helps ... 2016-11-14 19:52 GMT+01:00 Jon Haddad <jonathan.had...@gmail.com>: > While Cassandra *can* be used this way, I don’t recommend it.
