Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Cassandra Wiki" for change notification.
The "StorageConfiguration" page has been changed by NickBailey. The comment on this change is: Add BOP info. http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/StorageConfiguration?action=diff&rev1=57&rev2=58 -------------------------------------------------- * '''partitioner''' - Partitioner: any {{{IPartitioner}}} may be used, including your own as long as it is on the classpath. Out of the box, Cassandra provides {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.RandomPartitioner}}}, {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.OrderPreservingPartitioner}}}, and {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.CollatingOrderPreservingPartitioner}}}. (CollatingOPP colates according to EN,US rules, not naive byte ordering. Use this as an example if you need locale-aware collation.) Range queries require using an order-preserving partitioner. + Partitioner: any {{{IPartitioner}}} may be used, including your own as long as it is on the classpath. Out of the box, Cassandra provides {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.RandomPartitioner}}}, {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.OrderPreservingPartitioner}}}, {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.ByteOrderedPartitioner}}}, and {{{org.apache.cassandra.dht.CollatingOrderPreservingPartitioner}}}. (CollatingOPP colates according to EN,US rules, not naive byte ordering. Use this as an example if you need locale-aware collation.) The only difference between BOP and OPP is that OPP requires keys to be UTF-8 encoded. Range queries require using an order-preserving partitioner. Achtung! Changing this parameter requires wiping your data directories, since the partitioner can modify the !sstable on-disk format.
