what do you mean by ad-hoc queries? Do you mean simple queries against a single column family aka table?
Or do you mean MDX style queries that looks at multiple tables? if it's MDX style queries, many people extract data from Cassandra into a data warehouse that support multi-dimensional cubes. This works well when the extracted data is a small subset and fits neatly in a data warehouse. As others have stated, Cassandra isn't great at ad-hoc. For MDX style queries, Cassandra wasn't designed for it. One thing we've done for our own project is to combine solr with our own fuzzy index to make ad-hoc queries against a single table more friendly.
