Attended Rick's presentation last night. It was so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend taking one in. The md5 hashing to shards around a keyspace ring and the read/write quora were particularly interesting. Definitely going to be browsing the Reddit source (https://github.com/reddit/reddit https://github.com/reddit/reddit) for ideas on how to use Cassandra.

You should read the Dynamo paper: http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2007/10/amazons_dynamo.html http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2007/10/amazons_dynamo.h... The ring is first explained in Section 4.2 Partitioning Algorithm.
