Mikhail Stepura commented on CASSANDRA-7458:
--------------------------------------------

A couple of questions about the scope of this ticket:
# Do we want to support functions with arbitrary number of arguments 
{{f(x1,x2,...,column,...,xn)}} or just simple single argument functions 
{{f(column)}}?
# Do we want to allow more than 1 index per a column?

> functional indexes

> Indexing information derived from the row can be powerful.  For example, 
> using the hypothetical {{extract_date}} function,
> {code}
> create table ticks (
>     symbol text,
>     ticked_at datetime,
>     price int,
>     tags set<text>,
>     PRIMARY KEY (symbol, ticked_at)
> );
> CREATE INDEX ticks_by_day ON ticks(extract_date(ticked_at));
> {code}
