Hi Elser I have clearly total about rowkey does I am talking about data? see below what I have told about rowkey
SALT_ID_DayStartTimestamp_DayEndTimeStamp_IDTimeStamp Problem is this you are not understanding the question and just telling what you know, even on slack you are saying same thing. Question is simple if I put salt (which can be any arbit char or genrated hash any thing) at the begning of the rowkey why my data not getting distributed Please note this is not pre splitted table.
