Have been following Cockroach for a bit now, looking forward to it. One of the things I like about Cassandra's CQL is that it doesn't let you shoot yourself in the foot. You have to opt-in to doing conditionals that require range scans, you have to provide the PK (or indexed column) for every query, etc. Will Cockroach will do similar in forcing the users to select their data in a certain way that is performant (or at least require opt-out to do full scans)?
- bdarnell 11y ago(I work for CockroachDB) This is something that we're definitely interested in. We haven't decided yet exactly what form it will take, but we plan to offer some way to ensure that the DB will return an error instead of silently falling back to an extremely inefficient query plan.
