> sstableloader only stream existing sstables. If you need to load data
> existing in another form (json, csv, whatnot), you need to first write the
> sstable(s) to load. The recommended way to do this is either to use
> json2sstable or to modify it if your input is not json. Modifying
> json2sstable is however more involved than it needs to be, you'll need at
> least some basic understanding of a bunch of internal classes (DecoratedKey,
> ColumnFamily, SuperColumn, ...). Even for json input, you can use
> json2sstable only if your json actually conform to what is expected and even
> then, good luck to someone that want to add counters.
> This ticket proposes to add a simple interface to write sstables.
