Re: Consistent hashing vnodes and ring in cassandra
The has results in a token The replicas are typically the RF instances with tokens numerically larger than the hash So if a row hashes to token 1, and the instances are -100,0,100,200,300,400,500 the replica instances are 100,200,300, and cassandra considers them to be identical for nearly all purposes Some snitches will skip some of the replicas to satisfy other requirements - if 200 and 300 are in the same rack (or the same machine because of vnodes), a rack aware snitch will choose 100,200,400 instead. > On Aug 17, 2019, at 12:21 PM, Inquistive allen wrote: > > Hello Jeff, > > Thanks for the responses. > I just got it right.

Re: Consistent hashing vnodes and ring in cassandra
Hello Jeff, Thanks for the response. I just got it right. One Last thing, when a read request comes in to the coordinator node, the partition key is hashed and a node is located where corresponding data is previously stored. How does the coordinator node locate the replica nodes for this row. The first copy of this was written based on hash number, but the replica copies were written based on replication strategy. Will a hash of any partition key list out all nodes where data is present .

Consistent hashing vnodes and ring in cassandra
I am a newbie in cassandra. I have asked this question on various platforms but never got a satisfying answer. Hence thought of bringing up the topic here. Sorry for this might be a simple question. 1. I studied the paper on consistent hashing (which is being implemented in Cassandra) 2. Cassandra has the concept of Vnodes. The vnodes( As I understand a Vnode is a collection of Hashes) , are the basic blocks of replication in cassandra. It is the vnodes which are replicated across the cluster. Please do correct me I'm wrong 3. Suppose I have a Keyspace A with replication factor 3 and Keyspace B with replication factor 2. 4. Is it that a Vnode is a collection of hashes of data from various Keyspaces. 5. In that case, Keyspace with varying replication factors , replicating them to other nodes would be a problem 6. Now from the consistent hashing paper, I get a feeling that , ach Keyspace has a different ring. Also the name "KEYSPACE", points to a ring of keys in the ring. So is it that each keyspace has a different ring. If it is so, everything else like replicating vnodes among nodes in the cluster would fall in place. Each Keyspace has a different ring ---> each Vnode has data of various tables from a given keyspace> hence copies equal to RF is only made in the cluster. I know I am missing something. This way of understanding thing might be wrong. Kindly help me understand the same. As this would help me visualise repair, bootstrap, adding cluster, streaming operations in a much better way. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@cassandra.apache.org
