The Apache Cassandra Project develops a highly scalable second-generation distributed database, bringing together Dynamo's fully distributed design and Bigtable's ColumnFamily-based data model.

There is a newer version: 5.0-rc1

/**
 * Represents a unique identifier in the sstable descriptor filename.
 * This ensures each sstable file uniqueness for the certain table on a single node. However, new implementations
 * should ensure the uniqueness across the entire cluster. The legacy implementation which does not satisfy cluster-wide
 * uniqueness will be deprecated and eventually removed.
 * 
 * A new implementation must adhere to the following invariants:
 * - Must be locally sortable - that is, the comparison must reflect the comparison of generation times of identifiers
 * generated on the same node
 * - String representation must *not* include the {@link Descriptor#FILENAME_SEPARATOR} character, see {@link Descriptor#fromFileWithComponent(File)}
 * - must be case-insensitive because the sstables can be stored on case-insensitive file system
