Using cassandra as key /value store

Hi All,
          I am  designing an application where I  need to store data as
key-value pair without the present need to use column/super-column family
stuff.
Does my use case fits Cassandra. My traffic will be 70-80% read traffic.The
latency requirements are 100ms.

Thanks
Anurag

Cassandra gives you a superset of simple key/value, so why not?

reddit is using Cassandra like this, fwiw.
