Hi,

I am new to No SQL (and Cassandra). As I am going through few articles on
Cassandra, it says Cassandra achieves highest throughput among various No
SQL solutions but at the cost of high  read and write latency. I have a
basic question here - (If my understanding is right) Latency means the time
taken to accept input, process and respond back. If Latency is more how
come the Throughput is high?

Thanks
Ajay
