Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-7919: ------------------------------------------- bq. we need guaranteed uniqueness cross-cluster, which timeuuids only achieve if created server side I don't follow. The advantage of UUID is precisely that we don't need server-side coordination to achieve global uniqueness. > Change timestamp representation to timeuuid > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-7919 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7919 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: T Jake Luciani > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.0 > > > In order to overcome some of the issues with timestamps (CASSANDRA-6123) we > need to migrate to a better timestamp representation for cells. > Since drivers already support timeuuid it makes sense to migrate to this > internally (see CASSANDRA-7056) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
