> When using a IPartitioner that does not sort data in byte order (RandomPartitioner for example) with Cassandra's Hadoop integration, Hadoop is unaware of the output order of the data.
> We can make Hadoop aware of the proper order of the output data by implementing Hadoop's mapreduce.Partitioner interface: then Hadoop will handle sorting all of the data according to Cassandra's IPartitioner, and the writing clients will be able to connect to smaller numbers of Cassandra nodes.
