| Abstract | The big data phenomenon is becoming a fact. Continuous increase of digitization and connecting devices to Internet are making current solutions and services smarter, richer and more personalized. The emergence of the NoSQL databases, like Cassandra, with their massive scalability and high availability encourages us to investigate the management of the stored data within such storage system. In our present work, we harness the geohashing technique to enable spatial queries as extension to Cassandra query language capabilities while preserving the native syntax. The developed framework showed the feasibility of this approach where basic spatial queries are underpinned and the query response time is reduced by up to 70 times for a fairly large area. |
