Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-29:
-----------------------------------------
Johan, I agree that binary data works better.
But I'm not sure if binary is going to be a data type in thrift moving forward;
see the comments to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-395 (start
where dreiss jumps in).
> Change value to binary from string

> In the thrift interface the value is of type string but internally in
> Cassandra it is handled as a byte array. Exposing the value as thrift type
> binary would avoid conversions and charset issues.
