Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-3761:
---------------------------------------------
@jawahar In you 2), userid is the only key, and hence each user can only have
one posted_at (which is unlikely what you want in that example). Creating an
index on posted_at doesn't change that, it just make it possible to search for
the users based on their unique posted_at value (in particular, the 2nd query
or the 2nd example doesn't make a whole lot of sense). And in the first
example, if you only specifiy 'WHERE userid = '..'' for instance, it'll return
all the records for that userid.

> This ticket is a reformulation/generalization of CASSANDRA-2474. The core
> change of CQL 3.0 is to introduce the new syntaxes that were discussed in
> CASSANDRA-2474 that allow to:
> # Provide a better/more native support for wide rows, using the idea of
> transposed vie.
> # The generalization to composite columns.
> The attached text file create_cf_syntaxes.txt recall the new syntaxes
> introduced.
> The changes proposed above allow (and strongly suggest in some cases) a
> number of other changes to the language that this ticket proposes to
> explore/implement (more details coming in the comments).
