Stu Hood updated CASSANDRA-1368:
--------------------------------

    Comment: was deleted

(was: > but we're okay if we change the avro client api in backwards-compatible 
ways, right?
Sortof... because Avro requires the reader's and writer's schema: otherwise, it 
assumes they are the same.

The attached example code doesn't actually create a package: it just always 
works with whatever the current {{cassandra.avpr}} is, so it will continue to 
work as long as things are changed backwards compatibly. If somebody packaged 
the {{avpr}} up in their application somehow, or generated code, they'd see a 
runtime failure, unless none of the objects they were writing had schema 
changes.

> i'd say adding OUTPUT_SCHEMA_KEY is worth putting in the if/when it's 
> actually a problem category
Fine by me. It's already (accidentally) labeled as a FIXME.)

> Hadoop Streaming is a framework that allows mapreduce jobs to be written in 
> languages other than Java, by performing simple IPC on stdin/stdout.
> Adding output support for Hadoop Streaming to Cassandra would mean that users 
> could write very simple scripts in dynamic languages to load data into 
> Cassandra. Once our Hadoop OutputFormat has stabilized a bit, we might also 
> be able to this code to provide scalable bulk loading.
