Mck SembWever commented on CASSANDRA-3136:
------------------------------------------
Ok... it was mentioned in CASSANDRA-2388 (by Patrik Modesto). but no one there
paid it any attention as it didn't belong to that issue.
> Allow CFIF to keep going despite unavailable ranges

> Key: CASSANDRA-3136
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3136
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Hadoop
> Reporter: Mck SembWever
> Priority: Minor
>
> From http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.cassandra.user/18902
> <use-case-1 from="Patrik Modesto">
> We use Cassandra as a storage for web-pages, we store the HTML, all
> URLs that has the same HTML data and some computed data. We run Hadoop
> MR jobs to compute lexical and thematical data for each page and for
> exporting the data to a binary files for later use. URL gets to a
> Cassandra on user request (a pageview) so if we delete an URL, it gets
> back quickly if the page is active. Because of that and because there
> is lots of data, we have the keyspace set to RF=1. We can drop the
> whole keyspace and it will regenerate quickly and would contain only
> fresh data, so we don't care about lossing a node.
> </use-case-1>
> <use-case-2>
> trying to extract a small random sample (like a pig SAMPLE) of data out of
> cassandra.
> </use-case-2>
> <use-case-3>
> searching for something or some-pattern and one hit
> is enough. If you get the hit it's a positive result regardless if
> ranges were ignored, if you don't and you *know* there was a range
> ignored along the way you can re-run the job later.
> For example such a job could be run at regular intervals in the day until a
> hit was found.
> </use-case-3>
