Is there any point to storing large objects (over 100MB) in Cassandra
columns? I'm considering it but it seems like a bad idea based on
I'd imagine the gossip overhead and key/column per disk limitation is
too open for abuse to recommend storing lob columns with any level of
predictability, particularly if frequent updates are involved. Would
you say it's generally better form to store manifests or file pointers
only, and send
Thanks for the Gossip note, I'll keep reading up on the protocols.
For key/column/disk I meant in terms of the Cassandra limitation -
The main limitation on column and supercolumn size is that all data
for a single key and column must fit (on disk) on a single machine in
the cluster.
Is it right
That's correct.
