Explain the term sstables?
Answer / Parvez Alam
In Apache Cassandra, SSTable (Sorted String Table) is a file format used for storing data on disk. Each table in Cassandra contains one or more SSTables, which are sorted by the primary key and organized into levels based on their immutability and compactness. SSTables are primarily composed of column families, which represent rows with their respective columns (or attributes) and values. The goal is to minimize disk seeks and maintain high performance when querying data.
