Default behavior of generating index_name for columns might need to be improved.

Key: CASSANDRA-2903
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2903
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: API
Affects Versions: 0.8.1
Reporter: Boris Yen
I have a few column families, each has a column called user_name. I tried to
use secondary index on user_name column for each of the column family. However,
when creating these column families, cassandra keeps reporting "Duplicate index
name..." exception. I finally figured out that it seems the default index name
is "column name"+"_idx", this make my column family violate the "uniqueness of
index name" rule.
I was wondering if the default index_name generating rule could be like "column
name"+"cf name", so the index name would not collide with each other that
easily, if the user do not assign "index_name" when creating a column family.
