Brian Hess commented on CASSANDRA-6477:
----------------------------------------
I really don't need to re-ignite the nomenclature debate, but another name that
might be more fitting with how we've talked about these tables in the past is
DB2's name: Materialized Query Tables
Anyone like or hate that name more?
> Materialized Views (was: Global Indexes)

> Local indexes are suitable for low-cardinality data, where spreading the
> index across the cluster is a Good Thing. However, for high-cardinality
> data, local indexes require querying most nodes in the cluster even if only a
> handful of rows is returned.
