             Summary: Implement mechanism in CQL to fetch a range of bytes from a blob object
                 Key: CASSANDRA-10999
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10999
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CQL
         Environment: Cassandra 2.1.11
            Reporter: Jose Martinez Poblete


We are using Cassandra as a backing store for IMAP
IMAP has a byte range fetch feature which mail clients do use for previews, especially of large objects.

For the cases where we have large objects stored on the database, we would like to retrieve a byte subset rather than the whole object (could be a blob or binary encoded as text)

Could a feature like this be implemented?
