Looks like ttl is in seconds (See head of the HStore file).
Do you have suggestion as to where we should document this (Where did
you try looking?).
Thanks,

I need this feature because I'd like old data to expire after X days.
I now see that I can use HColumnDescriptor.setTimeToLive(int
timeToLive). So, my question is what is the granularity of the
"timeToLive" parameter (Days / Hours/ Second) ?
Thanks

Subject: Re: Deleting old versions from a table
Why do you want to do that? I think limited the column family with
VERSIONS
is enough.

thinking to implement:
1) Run a map/reduce (similar to RowCounter) and for each rowid,
execute
a deleteall(rowed, timestamp)
2) Similar to (1), but with a scanner. I could also write a filter to
filter retrieve only rowids that have data older then timestamp.
Before I start writing code, I would like to know if there is an
existing process to delete old data?
