Hi Andrey, while the data values you generated might be following a true random distribution, your row key, UUID, is not (because it is created on the same machines by the same software with a certain window of time)
For example, if you were using the UUID class in Java, these would be composed from several components (related to dimensions such as time and version), so you can not expect a random distribution over the whole space.
