Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-6870:
-------------------------------------------
I don't think this gets us very close to real UDF support
(http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-createfunction.html) but I'm not
sure you want to block on that. If ZADD is your goal I think we'd be okay with
hardcoding some functions to start with. [~slebresne] [~thobbs]?

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Edward Capriolo
> Assignee: Edward Capriolo
> Priority: Minor
>
> Compare and swap uses paxos to only update a value only if some criteria is
> met. If I understand correctly we should be able to use this feature to
> provide a wider variety of server side operations.
> For example inside a paxos transaction performing a slice and then using a
> function to manipulate the slice. You could accomplish features like append
> and increment this way without user needing to know the current value.
> I took a stab at doing this. I **think** I did it correctly. Comments welcome.
