I have a column family with really wide rows set to use Snappy like this:
compression_options = {'sstable_compression' : 'org.apache.cassandra.io.compress.SnappyCompressor'} My understanding is that if a file is compressed I should not be able to use "strings" command to view its contents. But it seems like I can view the contents like this:
strings *-Data.db
At what point does compression start ? How can I confirm it is working ? -- Regards, Oleg Dulin NYC Java Big Data Engineer http://www.olegdulin.com/
