Q1Domain Verified
When modeling time-series data in Cassandra for an IoT sensor application, which of the following table design principles is MOST crucial for optimizing read performance for recent data points, considering the typical query patterns of "fetch latest N readings for sensor X"?
Utilizing a composite primary key with the sensor ID as the partition key and a timestamp as the clustering key, ensuring data is sorted chronologically within each partition.
Creating separate tables for each sensor to isolate its time-series data and prevent hot spots on a single partition.
Employing a wide-row model where each row represents a distinct sensor and all its readings are stored as columns with timestamped names.
Partitioning the data by a time bucket (e.g., day, week) and using the sensor ID as the clustering key to group readings for a sensor within that bucket.

In the context of the "The Complete Cassandra Data Modeling for Time-Series Applications Course 2026," what is the primary benefit of using bucketing for time-series data in Cassandra, especially when dealing with high-volume ingestion and queries that aggregate data over specific periods?
Bucketing allows for seamless schema evolution by enabling the addition of new time-series metrics without altering existing data structures.
Bucketing is primarily a technique to enforce data consistency across distributed nodes by ensuring all data within a bucket is replicated identically.
Bucketing helps to distribute read and write load across multiple nodes by creating smaller, more manageable partitions, mitigating hot spots.
Bucketing directly reduces the number of SSTables on disk, leading to faster compaction and reduced storage overhead.
Q3Domain Verified
When applying the "query-driven design" principle to time-series data modeling in Cassandra, and anticipating a common query like "get average temperature for sensor_id X in the last hour," what is the MOST appropriate table structure and primary key design?
`CREATE TABLE sensor_readings (sensor_id uuid, reading_time timestamp, temperature float, PRIMARY KEY ((sensor_id), reading_time));`
`CREATE TABLE sensor_readings (sensor_id uuid, reading_time timestamp, temperature float, PRIMARY KEY ((sensor_id, date_bucket), reading_time));` where `date_bucket` is `yyyyMMdd`.
`CREATE TABLE sensor_readings (sensor_id uuid, reading_time timestamp, temperature float, PRIMARY KEY (reading_time, sensor_id));`
`CREATE TABLE sensor_readings (sensor_id uuid, reading_time timestamp, temperature float, PRIMARY KEY (sensor_id, reading_time));`
