"Compared with other causes of premature death, air pollution kills 19 times more people each year than malaria, nine times more than HIV/AIDS, and three times more than alcohol.
Coronary heart disease and stroke account for almost half of those deaths, with lung diseases and other non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure making up most of the rest. "

Given my preface, the "how" is scale out on top of Cassandra, of course. Not SQL, and hard to do if you have a highly relational model, but many stories of success at those kinds of scale.
This is the epitome of an anti-pattern .I sincerely hope that this approach was floated by somebody who had never used Cassandra before.
Even if individual requests were reasonably fast, you are sticking all of your data in a single partition, creating the hottest of hot spots and failing to leverage the scale out nature of your database.
