Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-749: ------------------------------------ > "maybe it had the columns requested, maybe not, but it didn't match your > where clause" I'm not talking about looking at values here: just keys/names. So the only question that query is answering is "did this column key/name exist with these parents". The _only_ way to query values with the API I proposed is to create a view by the value. > "my system lets me do queries that are slow" is NOT a complaint most people > have about sql I disagree, but perhaps we misunderstood eachother on that first point. ---- Are there any alternatives to 'null rows', that aren't as awkward? Essentially, what a user is supposed to understand is: "the database had to scan 100 null rows for every 1 that it returned" > Secondary indices for column families > ------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-749 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-749 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Core > Reporter: Gary Dusbabek > Assignee: Gary Dusbabek > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.8 > > Attachments: 0001-simple-secondary-indices.patch, > views-discussion-2.txt, views-discussion.txt > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
