[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-4775) Counters 2.0

["Srdjan Mitrovic (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4775?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13546035#comment-13546035 ] 

Srdjan Mitrovic commented on CASSANDRA-4775:
--------------------------------------------

Don't atomic batched have potential for a retry mechanism?
Now that CASSANDRA-4285 has been resolved can't you use Atomic batches to have idempotent counters? If we put in the same batch both incr and adding a wide row cell we could later see if we have a cell and not execute that batch again. 

I apologize if there is something fundamentally wrong in my understanding of how cassandra batches work so in that case please delete my message so that it doesn't derail the issue.

> The existing partitioned counters remain a source of frustration for most users almost two years after being introduced.  The remaining problems are inherent in the design, not something that can be fixed given enough time/eyeballs.
> Ideally a solution would give us
> - similar performance
> - less special cases in the code
> - potential for a retry mechanism
