Looks like the java-driver supplies the hack I need. (TokenRange.unwrap) I¹ll leave it to you guys to decide if it is more elegant to support wrapping natively in CQL.

From: Brian O'Neill <b...@alumni.brown.edu> Date: Monday, May 11, 2015 at 12:32 PM To: "dev@cassandra.apache.org" <dev@cassandra.apache.org> Subject: Wrap around CQL queries for token ranges? I was doing some testing around data locality today (and adding it to our distributed processing layer). I retrieved all of the TokenRanges back using: tokenRanges = metadata.getTokenRanges(keyspace, localhost) And when I spun through the token ranges returned, I ended up missing records. The root cause was the ³edge case² where the ring wraps around. It generated the following CQL query: (using the last token range) cqlsh> SELECT token(id),id,name FROM test_keyspace.test_table WHERE token(id)>8743874685407455894 AND token(id)<=-8851282698028303387; (0 rows) cqlsh> SELECT token(id),id,name FROM test_keyspace.test_table WHERE token(id)<=-8851282698028303387 AND token(id)>-9223372036854775808; token(id) | id | name ----------------------+----+-------- -9157060164899361011 | 23 | name23 -9108684050423740263 | 53 | name53 -9084883821289052775 | 91 | name91 (3 rows) NOTE: If I use Long.MAX_VALUE instead, I get the records. I can hack this at the app layer, to issue separate queries for the wrap around case, but I wonder if CQL should support wrap around queries??? -brian --- Brian O'Neill Chief Technology Officer Health Market Science, a LexisNexis Company 215.588.6024 Mobile @boneill42 <http://www.twitter.com/boneill42> This information transmitted in this email message is for the intended recipient only and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
