Hi chamila,

BAM Cassandra archival feature is designed for event streams, not for all
cassandra column family. Hence for arbitrary column family you can't use
this feature. CEP and BAM uses different stream definition store, hence the
streams defined in CEP is not accessible in BAM. And also there is a
limitation in BAM archival feature, that you can't archive hours old data
and it will handled with days granularity. But this can be fixed easily, we
will fix it so that you can archive with hours granularity in the next
release.

Anyhow finally the archive feature is generating hive script based on the
stream name and the date/time you have provided in the UI and executes in a
scheduled time interval to archive the data from the source column family.
Hence you can also write similar hive script in your own which reads from
your original source column family and archive to another column family,
which does the same job as archival feature.

Thanks,
Sinthuja.
