Hi, You should take a look at how Stratio’s Lucene index decodes CFs and keys, start from RowService.doIndex() implementations: https://github.com/Stratio/cassandra-lucene-index/tree/branch-2.2.13/plugin/src/main/java/com/stratio/cassandra/lucene/service
Note that in some cases an update without values is a delete of the Cell.

We have a multitenant cluster that we can't upgrade to 3.x easily, and we'd like to migrate some apps off of the shared cluster to dedicated clusters. This is a 2.2 cluster. So I'm trying a trigger to track updates while we transition and will send via kafka. Right now I'm just trying to extract all the data from the incoming updates so for public Collection<Mutation> augment(ByteBuffer key, ColumnFamily update) { the names returned by the update.getColumnNames() for an update of a table with two clustering columns and had a regular column update produced two CellName/Cells: one has no name, and no apparent raw value (bytebuffer is empty) the other is the data column. I can extract the primary key from the key field But how do I get the values of the two clustering columns? They aren't listed in the iterator, and they don't appear to be in the key field. Since clustering columns are encoded into the name of a cell, I'd imagine there might be some "unpacking" trick to that.
