Odd Node Behavior

2012-05-14 Thread E S
Hello, I am having some very strange issues with a cassandra setup.  I recognize that this is not the ideal cluster setup, but I'd still like to try and understand what is going wrong. The cluster has 3 machines (A,B,C) running Cassandra 1.0.9 with JNA.  A B are in datacenter1 while C is in

Efficienct RangeSlice of SuperColumn and Columns in one call

2010-11-16 Thread E S
I am going to have a supercolumn family where some rows can be quite large (10-100 mb). I'd like to be able to pull a subset of this data without having to pull the whole thing into memory and send it over the wire. Each query will be for only one row. The supercolumn key and the child column

Smart Client Routing

2010-11-16 Thread E S
I am considering building a system as follows: 1. Data stored in Cassandra 2. Webservice cluster (stateless) will pull data from cassandra and do business operations plus security enforcement 3. Clients will hit the webservice cluster I'm trying to maintain a low read latency and am worried

Achieving isolation on single row modifications with batch_mutate

2010-11-27 Thread E S
I'm trying to figure out the best way to achieve single row modification isolation for readers. As an example, I have 2 rows (1,2) with 2 columns (a,b). If I modify both rows, I don't care if the user sees the write operations completed on 1 and not on 2 for a short time period (seconds). I

Confused about get_slice SliceRange behavior with bloom filter

2011-02-12 Thread E S
I've gotten myself really confused by http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/ArchitectureInternals and am hoping someone can help me understand what the io behavior of this operation would be. When I do a get_slice for a column range, will it seek to every SSTable? I had thought that it would use

Extra Large Memtables

2011-02-12 Thread E S
I am trying to minimize my SSTable count to help cut down my read latency. I have some very beefy boxes for my cassandra nodes (96 gigs of memory each). I think this gives me a lot of flexibility to cut down SSTable count by having a very large memtable throughput setting. While

Safely adding new nodes without losing data

2013-07-20 Thread E S
I am trying to understand the best procedure for adding new nodes.  The one that I see most often online seems to have a hole where there is a low probability of permanently losing data.  I want to understand what I am missing in my understanding. Let's say I have a 3 node cluster (node A,B,C)
