How do I retrieve data from the videos_by_tag table in exercise 3 of the DS201 course?
yes, you are correct, you cannot retrieve a video by title from this table, as title is not the partition key, unless you allow filtering (which scans the full table and is not performant).
CREATE TABLE videos_by_tag (
tag TEXT,
video_id UUID,
added_date TIMESTAMP,
title TEXT,
PRIMARY KEY ((tag), video_id)
);
The solution to this step calls this out (see the "Partitions - Solutions" pdf). It's an exercise to check your understanding, and you got it right.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the clarification. Where can I find the "partitions - solutions" pdf.
