Big partitions, tamed

The paged read Mongrel runs for you.

Click any stage below to see what happens to your CQL, from parameter binding to the last page. Same flow you get inside the workbench.

// First page · 500 rows · paging state

The first page arrives with the driver's paging state attached. Rows render immediately in the Results grid while the rest of the partition stays server-side.

-- ks.events · paged read, 500 rows per page
SELECT event_id, status, payload
FROM ks.events
WHERE tenant_id = :tenant_id
  AND created_at > :since;

-- page 1 of 9 · 500 rows · paging state saved
-- ▶ Next page resumes the running query - no re-execution
-- ✎ Edit a row inline: UPDATE keyed by the full primary key

-- parameters
:tenant_id = 'acme',  :since = '2026-06-01'

What Mongrel ships for Cassandra.

Keyspace & table browser

Browse keyspaces, tables, and views with full column and key detail - partition keys, clustering keys, primary keys, and indexes.

Paged CQL with parameters

Run CQL with named parameters and driver-level paging. Large partitions stream in pages instead of freezing the grid.

Consistency & cancel control

Set default and serial consistency levels per connection, and cancel an in-flight CQL statement without dropping the session.

Full-primary-key row edits

Edit rows safely with the complete primary key enforced. No accidental cross-partition writes, ever.

SSH tunneling & native auth

Reach private clusters through an SSH tunnel to your contact point, with Cassandra/ScyllaDB native username-password authentication.

Compression-aware transport

LZ4 or Snappy compression on the wire, negotiated per connection and set right in the connection profile.

Filtered browse & batch insert

Project columns, filter where Cassandra's query rules allow, sort on clustering columns - and insert one row or a whole batch.

Cassandra & ScyllaDB alike

One native CQL plugin for Apache Cassandra and Scylla-compatible clusters, with direct-peer topology discovery and failover.

Result export

Export the current result page to CSV, JSON, Excel, or Parquet through the standard Results export actions.
