Since SSTables are mutable, and they are ordered, does this mean that there is a index of key ranges that each SS table holds, and the value could be 1 more sstables that have to be scanned and then the latest one is chosen?
e.g. Say I write a value "abc" to CF1. This gets stored in a sstable. Then I write "def" to CF1, this gets stored in another sstable eventually. How when I go to fetch the value, it has to scan 2 sstables and then figure out which is the latest entry correct? So is there an index of key's to sstables, and there can be 1 or more sstables per key? (This is assuming compaction hasn't occurred yet).
