Hello,
Quick question on Cassandra, TTLs, tombstones, and GC grace. If we have a
column family whose only mechanism of deleting columns is utilizing TTLs, is
repair really necessary to make tombstones consistent, and therefore would it
be safe to set the gc grace period of the column family
Hi Michael,
yes, you should never loose a delete, because there are no real deletes. No
matter what version you are using.
btw: There is actually a ticket that builds an optimization on top of that
assumption: CASSANDRA-4917. Basically, if TTLgc_grace then do not create
tombstones for
