Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2878:
-------------------------------------------

So I'm attempting option (1) above, with a method like this:

{code}
. CqlResult execute_partitioned_cql_query(1:required binary query, 
                                          2:required string start_token, 
                                          3:required string end_token, 
                                          4:Compression compression)
{code}

The problem I'm running into is that paginating this CQL-side is enormously 
painful.  Suppose the last resultset entry is for a composite column (first = 
a, second = b) in a row k.  Then I need to request my next page as "... WHERE 
(key > k OR (key = key AND first >= a AND second > b))."  QueryProcessor just 
isn't up to this task, even without the complexity of throwing in other 
IndexExpressions.

Starting to think that we're better off with (4) for 1.1, after all.

> Currently, when running a MapReduce job against data in a Cassandra data 
> store, it reads through all the data for a particular ColumnFamily.  This 
> could be optimized to only read through those rows that have to do with the 
> query.
> Adding CQL support to m/r will allow using an index more simply than trying 
> to cram support for more parameters into the job configuration.
