Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
[~jbellis] After poking around in the slice SliceQueryFilters and other pieces
I get what you are saying. It is definitely better that the majority of the
code be implemented closer to the ColumnFamily/StorageProxy rather then higher
up in thrift. I will read the other tickets and study that a bit. Then
potentially come up with a lower level implementation.
Does anyone like the idea of using the Dynamic Loading feature to implement
triggers while still controlling the feature with this configuration knob?
dynamic_loading:
- JAVA_LOCAL_CLASSPATH
- GROOVY_CLASS_LOADER
That seems to be a nice win working with triggers without having to ship around
jar files? Should I open up another ticket?

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
I have to read more the other tickets. If you were going to CQL-i-size this
scanner concept you could do it this way.
{code}
create function rolling_avg as 'com.whatever'
cql>start_scan select rolling_avg ( col ) as col1 from table where key in 'xyz'
limit 1000
{code}
This would make a scanner with a range_size=1000;
This would return something like:
{code}
scanner_id, rolling_avg, status
54, 4.5,scanner_continue
{code}
Then you would call
{code}
cql> next_scan 54
{code}
which world return
{code}
scanner_id, rolling_avg, status
54, 4.2, scanner_done
{code}

I'm all in favor of this. I'd love to see a UDTF equivalent in Cassandra and
CQL that could allow us to do a lot of deep mucking with server-side processing
in a plug-able way. My suggestion and request would be that you practically and
conceptually isolate that feature (a scanner/UDTF interface) from the other
aspects of this ticket. With a sane interface, I expect there would be minimal
objections. I know that this, by itself, doesn't meet all of your objectives,
but it moves us in the right direction.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
Recent changes:
{code}
struct ScannerCreateDesc {
1:required string cfname,
2:required string filter_name,
3:required binary key,
4:optional binary start_column,
5:optional binary end_column,
6:required i32 slice_size,
7:optional ConsistencyLevel consistency_level=ConsistencyLevel.ONE,
8:optional map params
}
{code}
{code}
public interface ScanFilter {
public FilterReturn filter(ColumnOrSuperColumn col, ScannerState state);
}
{code}
Adding the params allows us to create more generic scanners. Before the scanner
Limit3 was implemented. However now we can do things like LIMIT X
{code}
@Override
public FilterReturn filter(ColumnOrSuperColumn col, ScannerState state) {
state.getFiltered().add(col);
return state.getFiltered().size()<
ByteBufferUtil.toInt(state.getParams().get("limit"))
? FilterReturn.FILTER_MORE : FilterReturn.FILTER_DONE;
}
{code}
Also thinking more broadly scanners could work from CQL, Hive has a feature
called UDTF (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1614) that takes in
zero to many columns and produces zero to many rows with one to many columns.
this roughly equates to the Scanner interface I am working on. Session level
tracking with need to record the position in the row so that a second
disconnected query can pick up where the first left off. I will draft this up
later.

I was actually suggesting that two scanners could implement something like
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sort-merge_join across two column families.
However there are other applications as well like you suggest inside a single
row.

But I see no reason why a query language could not use a scanner to help it

{quote} Today people come to Cassandra with the expectation of a coherent
design that makes choices for them.{quote}
I'm a user. That is not why I come to Cassandra. On these other tickets
mentioned in this jira I see few users commenting or voting. For reference
there are 60 followers of https://github.com/zznate/intravert-ug . This allows
me to argue that not all users wish to be locked away from the database with an
access language.
{quote} That is why the right way forward for the project as a whole is to
figure out the right semantics are for CQL{quote}
A blocking query language can not achieve what scanners can.

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-6704:

bq. To step back for a bit, what we have here is an interesting feature
developed with minimal intrusion to the plumbing. To encapsulate this a bit
better, what if the non-thrift parts - the filter marshaling and execution -
were pushed into a new StorageProxy method? Then we can all go hack on our
transports of choice.
The problem is that an API is more than a transport. Syntax matters, Turing
completeness arguments aside. That is why the right way forward for the
project as a whole is to figure out the right semantics are for CQL. If we are
lucky and it also makes sense in the Thrift world (as with cas and
atomic_batch_mutate), so much the better. If not, then we should leave it out
rather than forking things. We're past the days of being an "index
construction kit;" today people come to Cassandra with the expectation of a
coherent design that makes choices for them. One of those choices is CQL.
(This doesn't mean we can't prototype things out in Thrift in the meantime, but
it does mean that you're taking a risk by doing so if the design ends up going
in a different direction.)

And I should note that I meant that it should get an iterator of the result
set, and that iterator should be interruptable. I'm quite open to other

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
{quote} One to act on on the query itself before it is executed, and another to
act on the result set of any query. {quote}
In many cases it is not enough to act on the result set of the query. Scanners
return a status that is interpreted by the framework allowing the processing to
continue or not. For example, imagine a wide row with 1 columns and my
goal is to search until I find a column that is even. I can not materialize the
result set first and them trim it down that would likely OOM.
That however is a totally valid use case. Intravert calls that a filter
https://github.com/zznate/intravert-ug/wiki/Filter-mode. This could be
implemented easy enough by allowing a SlicePredicate to supply an option
FilterFunction. Although that has one weird issue. If the filter leaves out the
last row, how do you know what the last row filtered was.
{quote}The main thing that would be sacrificed, with respect to this ticket,
would be embedded groovy in select statements, as I believe this is the most
controversial aspect.{quote}
Think about this. You create a function you load it to 30 servers. It is found
to have a bug. What do you do? Bob wants to create a new function??? Lets shut
down the entire cluster. Schedule and outage to rolling restart every server?
Without being able to load unload it is just a toy no one can really use it in
production in any meaningful way. One you put the proper cap on it and disallow
the features to those that fear it the problem is solved.

Given the dissension over this issue, and given my shared interest in many of
the objectives of this ticket (over and above the overlap with CASSANDRA-6167),
I'd like to propose an alternative way forward.
What if we were to create an interface exactly analogous to triggers that would
have two hooks (instead of the single one for triggers). One to act on on the
query itself before it is executed, and another to act on the result set of any
query.
The result would be jar deployment of a SELECT equivalent of triggers, and
would have all the same pros and caveats as triggers.
Admin deployment, and table-level permissions to use them would be the same.
The main thing that would be sacrificed, with respect to this ticket, would be
embedded groovy in select statements, as I believe this is the most
controversial aspect. But it would provide a mechanism around which to discuss
the possibility of embedded turing complete scripting in CQL in the future.
Thiis would appear to provide Ed the necessary hooks to achieve most of his
goals by automating groovy->jar deployment outside of core cassandra code.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
For reference: Hive allows users to add jar files to the class path and then
load user defined functions from them. Hive has similar issues with
"unfortunately" scoped static variables. In practice the plug-ability is a huge
win, regardless of some subtle risks.
Recently I added the capability to create groovy udfs from the hive shell using
a similar technique.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5250
We also provided a way for admins to allow and disallow this code
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5400
The net result is a huge win. Before we had users that did not have the time to
set up a development environment (get jars, build jars, email jars to admins,
push jars to cluster). It was not "security" it was just lots of hoop jumping.
It kept people from answers they wanted. When done correctly this is
transformative and powerful. Users have new avenues to access there data.
Sure you give someone some rope they can hang themselves with a see loop or
whatever, that is the down. Not saying it is perfect.

These security holes should NOT be the default.{quote}
Just to be clear. A system admin deleting the groovy-all.jar is not secure but
a system-admin adding a my-trigger.jar is?
lets not fight I agree. I will add a security role to cassandra that will allow
someone to reject loading groovy for this patch.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
Also just for reference having a sys admin deployment blocker, security system,
is not actual security. Are sysadmin's going to be able to code review the jars
and make sure the jar has no exploits? What if people are coming up with 19
triggers a day, sysadmin will just automate the trigger deployment. In today's
rapid deploy/continuous development world security by sysadmin slowdown is not
actually security. Most people just have hudson pushing jars they care about
and restarting.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
Here are some security points.
1) There are three thrift endpoints
* compiling end point
* scanner_start
* scanner_next
This feature still can work if the compiling endpoint is remove. Users will
only be able to access SFilter instances statically compiled in java included
on the classpath like triggers.
2) User can remove the groovy.jar from classpath
Cant compile groovy without groovy jar
3) The internal bit
Guess what? You really can not protect the world from itself.
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/udf-compiling.html
Does mysql have plugable UDFs increase an attack vector? Is that how people
attach mysql generally?

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
{quote}
This is exactly what I'm referring to. But even without the exposed static
functionality there would be basically the same problem because of reflection,
which without a SecurityManager would allow the user to access almost anything
they desired anyway. Running a SecurityManager is a major headache that's best
avoided, but would be pretty much essential to avoid the user accessing Unsafe
and doing really dangerous things. I'm not sure if a SecurityManager is
actually possible with the current state, as we have jars that share package
namespaces (e.g. disruptor thrift server) which I'm pretty sure are expressly
forbidden. We'd probably also need to start signing jars for this to work,
which then makes development and debugging a PITA. Note that without this we'd
not only be permitting clients to compromise C*, but the node it is running on
as well.

bq. Now unfortunately the Cassandra server is packed with globally reachable
static objects
This is exactly what I'm referring to. But even without the exposed static
functionality there would be basically the same problem because of reflection,
which without a SecurityManager would allow the user to access almost anything
they desired anyway. Running a SecurityManager is a major headache that's best
avoided, but would be pretty much essential to avoid the user accessing Unsafe
and doing *really* dangerous things. I'm not sure if a SecurityManager is
actually possible with the current state, as we have jars that share package
namespaces (e.g. disruptor thrift server) which I'm pretty sure are expressly
forbidden. We'd probably also need to start signing jars for this to work,
which then makes development and debugging a PITA. Note that without this we'd
not only be permitting clients to compromise C*, but the node it is running on
as well.
These things all need to be carefully assessed/discussed.

{quote}Possibly, although "create function" rights in normal databases do not

and dangerous behaviour, one that not everyone is going to get behind, and
waving it away because it does not concern you does not mean it is not a valid
concern.{quote}
In the current code the SFilter implementer has the ability to:
1) touch the row moving through the filter in flight.
2) Modify a list of rows that will be send back to the client.
We can be extra safe with try catch and duplicating the byte buffers thus
effecting performance.
Now unfortunately the Cassandra server is packed with globally reachable static
objects. Maybe this is what you are talking about as "internals". I do not have
a solution there. One one hand it is nice to be able to get at things like
metadata, and other stuff. On the other hand well it just sucks, that there is
static stuff floating around everywhere.
{quote}I mostly agree with you, although not everyone will. However I don't
think rushing into one person's ideal solution is the way forward for a large
project like Cassandra.{quote} Im not saying we should rush forward either. But
then again once the feature works and is tested I am not going to advocate
slowing down either.

bq. Saying that users will be confused by two ways to do something is not a
concern. If you could argue that some of those other features would be done in
1 week or 1 month maybe, but in reality they look very far off.
You contradict yourself here. Either it is a valid concern or not; the
timeliness of the conflict is irrelevant. Especially since features do not
become widespread until months after release, so 1 month is a very short time
horizon. Try 1-2yrs for a reasonable *minimum* distance between features if you
want to release approaches that conflict, IMO.
bq. Suggesting my code go into a fork because it may be redundant with some
undone future work by someone else is just plain silly.
Calling the concerns of several other people "plain silly" doesn't seem fair.
You may not be concerned, but clearly several others are. They are not all
being "plain silly" - we're not all out to stamp on your dreams.
bq. Sandboxing should be achieved by roles like a normal database new features
should be added like. 'GRANT CREATE FUNCTION'. Making a feature hard to use is
not security.
Possibly, although "create function" rights in normal databases do not offer
the client the ability to access product internals. This is an unexpected and
dangerous behaviour, one that not everyone is going to get behind, and waving
it away because it does not concern you does not mean it is not a valid concern.
bq. Cassandra has a large deficit here
I mostly agree with you, although not everyone will. However I don't think
rushing into one person's ideal solution is the way forward for a large project
like Cassandra. Let's take some time to reach consensus on how to address this,
if we want to (others I'm sure think keeping the compute side separate from
Cassandra is the right way forward, and we shouldn't ride roughshod over their
position without addressing any concerns).
Personally, I would like to see tight integration with a scripting language at
some point in Cassandra. But I think that integration needs to be carefully
considered, and not rushed into. Not at the official release level, anyway.

That is an invalid concern. You are saying that my working code is polluting
some future vision of Cassandra. All I see from CASSANDRA-6167 and friends is
tickets with some talk, no action, and few followers. Suggesting my code go
into a fork because it may be redundant with some undone future work by someone
else is just plain silly.
Saying that users will be confused by two ways to do something is not a

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
To declare this feature another way:
MongoDB has In-Database MapReduce (javascript queires that can be supplied
at runtime)
Cassandra has a large deficit here. We have CQL which only tackles some
problems with limited semantics, and we have hadoop map reduce that only
tackles really big problems.
This ticket gives us a now solution. To tackle problems that CQL can't. If the
average mongo user can tackle mongo map reduce, the average cassandra users
should be able to write a function. IMHO

Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-6704:

bq. You started the answer with "sorta". You are still allowing a user to put
code in the execution path. It is the exact same problem, if you let someone
compile dynamic code or you let the admin put the jar in a folder. You give
someone the potential to break something. All dynamic compiling does is make
the result faster to break and faster to fix.
This is very different. You're equating admins setting up the system with users
querying it, which are not the same. In your system, it may be, as you may
control all access paths to the database. But this is not the common case, and
we should not assume it is. Sandboxing seems absolutely essential, or it needs
to be disabled by default, in which case why not just have them drop in an
extra jar?
bq. Please do not imply that this feature is not coherent, or bad which has
been done several times already. This is a good feature.
I am not suggesting it is an incoherent or bad feature in isolation, and I
don't think anybody is. When I say coherent, I mean how it fits in with the
overall progress and development of the project, and how users interact with
the database. This is a pretty left field introduction, that doesn't fit
cleanly with anything we have currently. I do not intend to give the impression
I am judging the feature itself negatively; in fact I think it's pretty neat. I
just think whether neatness is enough is up for discussion.
bq. I am not asking other developers who make features with no votes to put
changes and in forks you should not ask me to do the same.
I am sorry, but I don't follow this?
The other developers here are expressing concern that this new feature will
place a future burden on them that you will not be able to alleviate. I think
given the nature and scope of the change that is a reasonable concern, that is
not brushed over lightly. It is not that anybody is singling out "your changes"
- this concern would be true regardless of the person suggesting it and,
frankly, were it not for your position in the community there probably would
not have been anywhere near this level of serious engagement with the
discussion.
They are also expressing concern that it will create a polluted vision of the
future of C*, with multiple conflicting ways to achieve something, both of
which nontrivial to understand, creating further demands on them and the wider
community in trying to explain all of these features to newcomers, with the
confusion potentially further exacerbating the negative perception of
Cassandra's ease of use.

Sort of, but there are some important differences: 1) as Brandon says, the code
is clearly vetted by the database dev team deploying triggers, which can't be
said here; and 2) we're all Java experts here, and the execution context is the
normal execution context of Cassandra, which again we're all familiar with.
Helping users with issues from dynamic class compilation / loading of languages
we don't understand is quite a different matter IMO, especially once sandboxing
is introduced (which really would be essential as C*'s internal APIs are not
safe to be accessed, nor protected, and could be used dangerously). It's not
clear to me this will be pain free from our side to ensure it always works,
either.
Also, with triggers we can more easily justify API breakages across minor/major
versions that require some work when upgrading, as they're well contained
within their Cassandra deployment, however if we expose internal APIs to client
code we will necessarily see more pushback on rapid development of these APIs,
as the difficulty for users to migrate will be increased.

You started the answer with "sorta". You are still allowing a user to put code
in the execution path. It is the exact same problem, if you let someone compile
dynamic code or you let the admin put the jar in a folder. You give someone the
potential to break something. All dynamic compiling does is make the result
faster to break and faster to fix.

I think it's a pretty nice underlying goal, but it's a really heavyweight
feature that needs to be approached cautiously, and as Sylvain says, preferably
coherently.{quote}
Please do not imply that this feature is not coherent, or bad which has been
done several times already. This is a good feature.
{quote}I do wonder if it mightn't be possible to offer this as an easy to apply
patch in the meantime, outside of the main Apache repository. {quote}
Nice compromise but I do not the apache way. This option is forcing me into a
fork. This is a non breaking change. It is new feature. Cassandra is an open
source project. I am a user. I want a feature. Someone else on thread says
{quote}IMO, harnessing the invokeDynamic stuff in the JVM thusly could have
some compelling applications for us. {quote} I am not asking other developers
who make features with no votes to put changes and in forks you should not ask
me to do the same.

What about trying this as via extending cassandra.thrift and CassandraServer? I
think this approach has been done before somewhere :)
This would keep it isolated in a single jar so the community could horse around
with it. Thoughts?

This only seems to make my issue (1) worse, to my eyes
bq. think about all the cql iterations like cql2 , execute_cql, execute_cql_3.
Set keyspace set _consistency level.
Well, these things are all still present. We may retire CQL2 soon, but that has
the advantage of having very quickly been superseded by CQL3, which to my
knowledge does not have dramatically different syntax anyway - and yet it still
has stuck around. It's not yet clear what this would be superseded by, or if
the functionality would map easily, and maintaining a deprecated access method
doesn't reduce the support burden.
I think it's a pretty nice underlying goal, but it's a really heavyweight
feature that needs to be approached cautiously, and as Sylvain says, preferably

I do wonder if it mightn't be possible to offer this as an easy to apply patch
in the meantime, outside of the main Apache repository. There are definitely
some users that would be happy with the security risks and would love this to
play with, but those people are power users who would be comfortable applying a
simple patch to their C* instance, and would not contribute excessively to the
support burden as they'd be competent enough to figure out any issues they have.
Just my 2c, anyway.

bq. look at triggers. Essentially the same thing, user code running inside
cassandra
Not quite, there is at least one very large difference here, and that is from
the perspective of security. If someone wants to run a custom trigger, their
code can be audited and vetted by the persons responsible for making sure it
doesn't access something it shouldn't or do anything malicious before they
implement it on the cluster. If you introduce a turing complete language that
the user can remotely invoke on the cluster, now it becomes *our job* to
sandbox this correctly.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
1) your point is well taken, but look at triggers. Essentially the same thing,
user code running inside cassandra. This is kinda the opposite, code on read
path not write path.
2)The nit_compiler can compile javascript, groovy, and clojure out of the box.
You are just implementing a method. The language that you chose to implement
the filter with is your call.
3) we can always roll back, think about all the cql iterations like cql2 ,
execute_cql, execute_cql_3. Set keyspace set _consistency level. these things

Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
-
I think the two issues that aren't being addressed effectively here are:
1) The support burden of introducing a whole new (*turing complete*) language
into the database; and (if we decide this is acceptable)
2) What language would be suitable?
Both are very difficult questions, and to make assumptions about either is
dangerous, as there is no stepping back from the decision once it's released.
Some users will rely on it, and it will have to be maintained. Guaranteeing
those hours of support burden is difficult, and not something easily committed
to (or convincingly, given there is no mechanism by which anybody can require
somebody contribute that support).
As to 1 (ignoring 2): any turing complete language is going to have interesting
and unexpected interactions with Cassandra once let loose upon the world. To
assume that the support burden will be low is very optimistic: naturally we
will take on some support burden of users of the language *itself*, as users do
not understand where they are making the mistake, be it in their interaction
with Cassandra or the language. But also there will be (probably many)
unintended edge cases, ones we don't expect and cannot predict because we do
not fully understand both sides of the equation, and that even if we did the
combination of the two is frankly impossible to model in our heads. These edge
cases will change and continually present themselves with each version and new
feature in Cassandra, and in the language itself.
2) The choice of Groovy itself is also likely to be a strong point of
contention. It may be quick to put in place, but I disagree with your
assertions that it is intuitive. I find it powerful in some situations, but it
has some very strange scoping behaviours, and I found myself quite unproductive
with it for at least the first day, which is a pretty poor track record given
my Java background and how straight forward it should ostensibly be. I don't
want to be on the other end of the user confusion, frankly. This, and it does
not have a strong backing in general; not weak, but not incredibly widely used.
And further, it - to me- seems a slightly lazily put together language. Useful
features, expressive, but not coherently designed with a clearly defined goal
and purpose or specifications. This is only my impression of it. The point
being it is a point of contention, and not easily brushed under the carpet.
So, as far as I can see, even *if* we decide that (1) is acceptable and we want
to include a turing complete language - or any languge other than CQL - and
that we are confident we can safely support it, we still need to collectively
address (2) carefully given that we cannot roll back the decision.

Nate McCall commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
Collective deep breath...
To step back for a bit, what we have here is an interesting feature developed
with minimal intrusion to the plumbing. To encapsulate this a bit better, what
if the non-thrift parts - the filter marshaling and execution - were pushed
into a new StorageProxy method?
Then we can all go hack on our transports of choice. I seem to recall us taking
this approach with other features in the past.

Apache has countless documents and guides on this. There is no official
language on not developing new thrift features. In fact you pointed out CAS
which was just added to thrift. The only words I have hear is that "thrift
support" is "not going anywhere". Now your trying to bend this interpretation
to mean "thrift can only have features that CQL has" or "thrift can only have
features if I feel like supporting them".
If this is how cassandra is going to be run then close the ticket. I'm out. I'd
done. Seriously.

bq. Which is why I should be able to scratch my own itch.
I'm sorry but I disagree. When you open a ticket on this JIRA, you're not
really in "scratching my own itch in my own backyard" territory anymore, you're
saying "I'm suggesting this for the Cassandra project". And the Cassandra
project is about more that just everyone scratching their own itches in
isolation because that's a crappy way to develop software: we're trying to
build a coherent piece of software. Don't get me wrong, itching can be a good
motivation and the start of new ideas, but itching doesn't give you an inherent
right to get something committed.
bq. Also no one every said this has to be a thrift only feature. I just chose
to build the POC in thrift because this was easier for me.
Fair enough, but what I'm saying is "CQL is the Cassandra API moving forward"
(that's the direction the project has been following for more than a year now)
and so adding something to CQL and optionally to thrift (the legacy API) if
that's trivial and relatively maintenance free is fine, but adding something to
thrit and "maybe later to CQL but it's unclear how" is kind of not ok since it
goes in the opposite direction of the project direction.
And well, so far, all you've provided us is a thrift-only POC and asked for
criticism on the design. So I'm saying that, as is, that's kind of not really
ok. If you have something to suggest that is a good fit for CQL and just
started with Thrift out of familiarity with it, then please do go on, but since
CQL is the important part as far as the Cassandra project is concerned, I'll
reserve judgement until the important part is here to see. If we then need less
than 200 lines of additional code on top of that hypothetical solution to
support Thrift too, then why not, I probably won't object to that.

I have some unique prospective on this from working with hive for a long time,
Hive has UDFs, UDTFs, UDAF, WindowingFunctions. The work to build the query
language and planner to support all these constructs is very complex.

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
The argument that blocking cql queries that do aggregations and thus are the
same thing as scanners is wrong. The argument that custom udfs are the same
thing as scanners is also wrong.
Scanners will give us the ability to do a special client server side paging not
possible in a blocking query language.
Additionally it is giving a simple way to do all these open tickets which
speaks volumes to this implementation.
The 2006 scanner approach is a valid one. It is a good technical solution and
having that solution can only be a win. If other approaches are better clearly
they would have been implemented by now.

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
-
bq. Everything CQL is right, and everything else is wrong?
I don't think that's really what people mean here. I believe the concern (maybe
I should say "my" concern, I'm really speaking in my own name here) is that it
would be a bad idea for C* to have 2 API (thrift and CQL) that continue to
evolve with set of features that fundamentally do the same thing but have
different implementations. In practice, the project don't want to maintain 2
APIs, we don't have infinite development resources and this is confusing for
users in the long run.
Thrift is the legacy API. We've promised to maintain it in it's current state
indefinitely (which *is* a non-negligible drain on the project resources btw),
and we are even fine exposing some new features through it when that require
very little maintenance effort (CAS for instance), but the C* API moving
forward, the one we are developing not just maintaining, is CQL.
This ticket seems non trivial and thrift-only by design and so, for the reason
I just expressed, I do not think that it's a good idea for the C* project and
agree that we should focus on tickets like CASSANDRA-4914 instead (and granted
no-one has had the time to focus on that yet, but that's really just proving my
point that development resources are never infinite. As a side note and for
what it's worth, I do intent to make ticket one of my priority for 3.0 (if
no-one else beats me to it of course)).

Sorry man, "Bigtable had scanners in 2006" is not a very convincing argument
for doing the same thing in Cassandra in 2014. Rather the opposite; surely we
can do better (as we have done in moving beyond exposing raw partitions/cells).

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
Why are we using the words right and wrong? Everything CQL is right, and
everything else is wrong? Prior art, big table white paper says scanners are
good so we should have scanners. They have nothing to do with adding an
aggregation or UDF feature to the cql language.

I hear your frustration that 6167 is four months old with little progress, but
I think Aleksey is right that a more productive response is "let me help figure
out how to do this right," not "let's implement something quick and dirty
because that's faster."
Actually, 6167 may be a bit of a red herring because I think CASSANDRA-5970 is
even closer to what you want, and I've offered a pretty clear path forward
there. (The obvious next step after "build-in filtering functions" would be
"user-defined filtering functions.")

{qutote}
This isn't exactly a fair analogy, you should be comparing the complexity of
groovy the language against CQL the language, or the complexity of antlr
against writing a language for the JVM, but not mixing the two and effectively
comparing syntactic complexity on one hand and the machinery necessary to parse
it on the other.
{quote}
As for this issue, the google clearly saw a rational for making scanners in
BigTable when they produced their white paper. CQL is declarative language and
Scanners and Filters (written in groovy) are imperative programming.
CASSANDRA-6167 is just one tiny case of what you can do with Scanners and
Filters and it is a 4 month old ticket. I'm not against anyone adding whatever
to CQL. Go ahead have fun, trying to make a DSL for everything :). Should that
stop everyone in the world from adding any cool feature to thrift though? I
think no.

IE should users wait for months/years until a statement like this "SELECT
pk,event from cf where pk IN (1,5,10,11) UNTIL PARTITION event {predicate}" is
implemented? Agile says iterate fast and don't plan forever. I am a little
tired of waiting for scanners and other cool stuff that hbase (and other nosql
systems) do out of the box.

You could argue that groovy is complex, but anyone that can write java can

About 1 year ago I was working on intravert
(https://github.com/zznate/intravert-ug). You say that "all maps really neatly
into CQL" but in reality its been a year, and most of these tickets are still
just talk.

I added a comment to CASSANDRA-6167 explaining how that would be used for read
aggregation. Ed is right that there is tremendous overlap in the goals of the
two tickets.

Which is why I linked to it. With 4914 and 6167 combined (all mapping neatly to
CQL), what are the use cases that would justify adding all this complexity (+
groovy), that we can't live without?

Edward Capriolo commented on CASSANDRA-6704:
This example is basically accomplishing CASSANDRA-6167. CASSANDRA-4914 is more
then this is trying to accomplish (general aggregation). A scanner is a really
nice medium between complete blocking "queries" and "map reduce". You could
build an aggregation, or even a rolling aggregation but flow control comes from
the client.
