Congratulations to the team.
Any word on native JSON types ? Scylla will have another reason to drop Cassandra.
- penberg 10y agoJSON types are actually not very often requested feature so we have not prioritized it very high. I suspect that's because most people just store their JSON data as text and do processing in their applocation. There's an open issue about it on Github: https://github.com/scylladb/scylla/issues/2058 https://github.com/scylladb/scylla/issues/2058 Please feel free to upvote and comment on the issue to voice your interest in the feature.
- manigandham 10y agoSome clarity - that issue is about interfacing with a row within a CQL table as a piece of json, not actually storing a schemaless json document (like in a special postgres-style json datatype). Cassandra is actually schemaless but since the shift to CQL from Thrift, it's unlikely that it'll go back to a schemaless model again. In the meantime, the Keen.IO crew has a nice model for storing lots of arbitrary json if that's something thats needed. It takes some work but a very clever strategy and they've made it work well.
