You should probably try to break the one row scheme to 2*Number_of_nodes rows scheme.. This should ensure proper distribution of rows and still allow u to query from a few fixed number of rows. How u do it depends on how are u gonna choose ur 200-500 columns during reading (try having them in the same row)
Even if u r forced to put them in seperate rows, u can make the row key as "some modulus of hash of column name", ensuring symmetry and easy access of columns... On Mon, Jul 23, 2012 at 6:02 PM, Ertio Lew <ertio...@gmail.com> wrote: > Any ideas/suggestions please?
