query tracing

2014-11-07 Thread Jimmy Lin
is there any significant performance penalty if one turn on Cassandra query tracing, through DataStax java driver (say, per every query request of some trouble query)? More sampling seems better but then doing so may also slow down the system in some other ways? thanks

Personally I've found that using query timing + log aggregation on the client side is more effective than trying to mess with tracing probability in order to find a single query which has recently become a problem. I recommend wrapping your session with something that can automatically log the

Redundancy inside a cassandra node

Hello all, My work will be deploying a cassandra cluster next year. Due to internal wrangling we can't seem to agree on the hardware. The software hasn't been finished, but management are asking for a ballpark figure for the hardware costs. The problem is the IT team are saying the nodes need to

Cassandra is a cluster itself, it's not necessary to have redundant each node. Cassandra has replication for that. And also Cassandra is designed to run in multiple data center - am think that redundant policy is applicable for you. Only thing from your saying you can deploy is raid10, other
