Hi,
There's a ticket also for columnar storage option, which I guess is
something that many might want. Not least because in many cases it could
reduce the storage footprint by a large margin (and enable more

Hi Stefan,
Yeah, my team has been working for 6+ months on the development and testing
of the RocksDB based storage engine, and we are in the process of rolling
it out to our production deployment inside Instagram! We see huge gains in
reducing the latency and footprint of our Cassandra clusters.
Hi Dikang
Have you been able to continue evaluating RocksDB? I'm afraid we might
be a bit too much ahead in the discussion by already talking about a
pluggable architecture, while we haven't fully evaluated yet if we can
and want to support an alternative RocksDB engine implementation at all.

We are trying to figure out a plan for the pluggable storage engine effort.
Right now, the discussion is mainly happening between couple C* committers,
