What am I doing wrong? > You sent a large blob ;) This limitation exists to protect you as a user. The DB can store such blobs but it will incur a large and unexpected latency, not just for the query but also for under-the-hood operations, like backup and repair. Best is not to store such large blobs in Cassandra or chop them into smaller units, let's say 10MB pieces and re-assemble in the app. > > Thank you in advance, > > Andria >
