Hi Jonathan, In my case, I'll have much more columns (thousands to millions) than keys in logs (campaign x days), so it's not an issue to retrieve all of them.
Also, if you assume that you can't retrieve values from Cassandra, just because you're using the wrong key (say your using "user/10" instead of "user:10") without the ability to list the keys, you'd have no way to find out the error.
