Cassandra FAQ
Simple Strategy
Assign the same replication factor to the entire cluster. For Test and Dev envs only.
Replication Factor
How many times the data is replicated across the clusters
Need at least 3 nodes if this value is set to 3.
Durable Writes
Bypass the commit log when writing to the keyspace if set to false.
NEVER disable it when using Simple Strategy.
Bloom Filter FP Chance
False-positive probability for SSTable bloom filter.
checks if the row exists before executing disk I/O
0 enables with the largest possible bloom filter and uses the most memory.
1.0 disables it.
Default: 0.01
Recommended: 0.1
Caching
Optimize the memory usage of tables.
will be weighted by size and frequency.
work with cassandra.yml
Compaction
Compression
CRC Check Chance
dclocal_read_repair_chance
Probability that a successful read operation triggers a read repair
limited to replicas in the same DC as the coordinator
default_time_to_live
max: 20 years in second
disabled: 0
a new TTL timestamp is calculated when the data is updated and the row is removed after all the data expires
gc_grace_seconds
GC: Garbage Collection
Tombstone: Deletion marker
data is marked with a Tombstone -> wait some time -> eligible for gc !
this config is about how long it should wait
Default: 10 days in second
memtable_flush_period_in_ms
Memtables:
Milliseconds before memtables associated with the table are flushed
max_index-interval
min_index_interval
read_repair_chance
similar to dclocal_read_repair_chance, but this repair is not limited to replicas in the same DC as the coordinator
