Jorge Bay commented on CASSANDRA-6644:
--------------------------------------
You are right, it looks like the only way would be to filter out rows in the
coordinator.
> CQL: Select every nth row within the same partition key

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Wish

> In a time-series schema (like metrics), it is common to create
> roollups/buckets with datapoints at different rate.
> It would be nice to have a keyword in CQL to be able to retrieve one every
> nth row (within a single storage engine wide row).
> For example, in the following schema:
> CREATE TABLE metrics (
> ... metric_id varchar,
> ... ts timestamp,
> ... value float,
> ... PRIMARY KEY (metric_id, ts)
> ... );
> The following query, will retrieve 1 in every 3 rows:
> (SKIP keyword or something like that, but don't focus on the syntax)
> SELECT ts, value WHERE metric_id = ? SKIP 2;
> This would be very useful for continuous (and somehow linear) metrics.
