Kelvin Kakugawa edited comment on CASSANDRA-1546 at 10/6/10 1:43 PM: --------------------------------------------------------------------- I read through your note on the v3 marker strategy. It sounds reasonable and does address the concerns that I raised, earlier. I think it's worth it for you to highlight the potential drawbacks. The three that seem to stick out the most are: 1) it requires 1-2 reads in a synchronized code path, which doesn't gel w/ cassandra's write-optimized design, 2) over-counts are repaired in an eventually consistent manner, and 3) UUIDs are only maintained for a configurable TTL. The above aren't showstoppers. However, anyone interested in using UUIDs to track updates should be aware of their limitations + trade-offs. was (Author: kelvin): I read through your note on the v3 marker strategy.
