I am working on a use case for Timeline series data. I have been told to create 600 column families in Cassandra. Meaning for 10 minutes, I will be having column families in Cassandra. Each second will have its own column family, so till 10 minutes which is 600 second, I will be having 600 column families...
In each second, we will write into that particular second column family.. so at 10 minutes (which is 600 second), we will write into 600 second column family.. I am wondering whether Cassandra will be able to handle 600 column families or not.. Right now, I am not sure how much data each column family will have... What I know so far is write will be coming at a rate of 20,000 writes per second... Can anyone shed some light into this?
