Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-6833: -------------------------------------------- I would like to mention (again) that nothing is preventing users from extending AbstractType and doing any type of validation on compose/decompose, especially for the type of logic mentioned above... > Add json data type > ------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-6833 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6833 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Core > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Priority: Minor > Labels: ponies > > While recognizing that UDT (CASSANDRA-5590) is the Right Way to store > hierarchical data in C*, it can still be useful to store json blobs as text. > Adding a json type would allow validating that data.
