GeoIndexing in Cassandra, Open Sourced?
I hear that a bunch of folks have GeoIndexing built on top of Cassandra and
running in production.
Any of them open sourced (Twitter? SimpleGeo? Bueller?) planning on it?

One possible open source approach would be to use the Solr 1.4 spatial
plugin[1] along with Solandra[2]
What kind of spatial searches are you looking for? basic bounding
box/radius?

Not open source, but here's a preso on how simplegeo do it:

Note: we do it very differently here at Twitter (but aren't at liberty
to discuss in detail)– I say this just to point out that there are
several valid strategies.

I can't make any promises on open sourcing that.

Thanks Ryan, Jake and Mike for the quick responses.
I will mull through this weekend between engineering things from scratch or
going the Solr/Solandra route as Jake points out is an option (and the
effort/time related with introducing Solr into the mix).
If there is any chance of Twitter or SimpleGeo open sourcing their
GeoIndexing implementation for Cassandra let me know, I might be able to
wait it out and would help contribute to make it usable for others too (and
myself as well of course =8^)
Cheers!

A more recent preso I gave about the SimpleGeo architecture is up at
