I'll second Jack's detailed response and add that you really should do some discovery to figure out what kinds of queries you may need to support. It might not be possible and often that is the case, but it's worth while to ask the end users what kind of reports they need to run. Allowing arbitrar

Knowing your queries in advance is a hard-core requirement for effective deployment of Cassandra. Ad hoc queries are a very clear anti-pattern for Cassandra. DSE Search does provide support for advanced, complex, and ad hoc queries. Stratio and TupleJump Stargate can also be used. Back to the ques
