| Re: [geomesa-dev] Question About Catalog Requirement in GeoMesa Cassandra DataStore |
Hi Simone!Since GeoMesa writes its own index structure and uses its own serialization for values, you won't be able to use GeoMesa directly for an existing table.There may be some library code which is useful for connecting to Cassandra, but other than that... I doubt you'd be able to use things as is.Does the existing table have a spatial index of some sort? There may be some involved way to extend GeoMesa. With details, we may be able to suggest things. By the time you do that, it may be faster to write a Datastore from scratch.CheersJimOn Sat, Oct 5, 2024, 11:54 AM Simone Giannecchini via geomesa-dev <geomesa-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi James,thanks for taking the time to respond to this.I guess the whole point is to understand whether or not we can use GeoMesa to serve data through GeoServer from an existing Cassandra table (made of points, btw).The table has been created outside of GeoMesa and is controlled by another tool; we would like to expose it via OGC using GeoMesa and GeoServer.Looking forward to reading your feedback.Regards,Simone Giannecchini

If you created them on your own, the data may not be written in a compatible format.Cheers,Jim_______________________________________________On Thu, Oct 3, 2024 at 1:00 PM Alessio Fabiani via geomesa-dev <geomesa-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Dear all,
Dear Emilio,First of all, thank you for your response. I’m replying directly to the mailing list because, for some reason, I did not receive your email directly in my inbox. I had to check the Eclipse mailing list archive to see if there had been any replies to my initial questions.
Regarding the use case I mentioned, we need to access tables in Cassandra that reside at the root level, meaning they do not have any prefix associated with them. Could you please provide more clarification on how this can be handled in the current setup?
Additionally, I would like to ask for more details about your statement: "The catalog table is used to store the metadata about feature types, so we would need some alternative storage location if we removed it." Are you referring to the
Metadataclass that maintains the list of available tables in the catalog? If so, how would you suggest managing metadata for feature types without relying on this catalog table?Thank you again for your assistance, and I look forward to any further insights you can provide on these points.

First of all, thank you for your incredible work! I’m excited to be part of this community and appreciate the effort that goes into maintaining GeoMesa.
Recently, I’ve been experimenting with GeoServer 2.24.x and Cassandra. I successfully configured the DataStore and connected it to Cassandra using your plugin, which worked perfectly.
However, I noticed that the DataStore requires setting a catalog as a mandatory parameter, which prevents linking tables directly to the root keyspace. After a quick review of the code, it seems like making this parameter optional might not be too difficult.
Could you provide some insight into why the catalog is required? Are there any reasons or potential issues that would arise if this requirement were made optional? If this is something the community would find useful, I’d be happy to explore contributing a solution.
Thanks again for all the great work!
Best regards,
Alessio.--Regards,
