Hi, The choice of ES vs Cassandra should really be made depending on your query use-cases. ES and Cassandra have their own strengths which should be matched to what you want to do rather than making a choice based on their respective feature sets.
Reading your original question again, it seems to me probably you don't need a fast data store since you are doing a batch-like processing (reading from Parquet files) and it is possibly to control this part fully. And it also seems like you want to use ES. You can try to reduce the number of Spark executors to throttle the writes to ES. -Shiva On Wed, Mar 15, 2017 at 11:32 PM, Muthu Jayakumar <bablo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Uladzimir / Shiva, > > From ElasticSearch documentation (i have to see the logical plan of a > query to confirm), the richness of filters (like regex,..) is pretty good > while comparing to Cassandra.
