Hi spats, thank you for your message.
Let me clarify a mistake I mentioned in my original post: I have 11 regions for that billions of rows table from 3 regions servers actually. I'm gonna answer your questions bellow: 1> This is the pattern of my rowkeys: "<hash>#<field_1>#<field_2>#0x<field_3>", where <hash> is the sha2 of <field_1> I wanna to retrieve rows whose start keys as "<hash>#<field_1>#<field_2>#0x00000" and stoprows as "<hash>#<field_1>#<field_2>#0xfffff0", where the fields <hash>, <field_1>, <field_2> in both start and stop rows are the same. Just <field_3> is different. What do you think about this pattern? I hashed the most significant part of the rowkey and just changed the less significant part when searching the ranges I want.
