Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-7622:
---------------------------------------------
Drivers, at least the java one, _have_ everything they need to allow forcing
which node it routes queries to (it may not be exposed too conveniently so far,
but we can let them do better there). And given that system table are already
local and we're only talking about adding more system table (just with a
different backing implementation), I don't think we need to invent anything new
here.
> Implement virtual tables
> ------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-7622
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7622
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Tupshin Harper
> Assignee: Jeff Jirsa
> Fix For: 3.x
>
>
> There are a variety of reasons to want virtual tables, which would be any
> table that would be backed by an API, rather than data explicitly managed and
> stored as sstables.
> One possible use case would be to expose JMX data through CQL as a
> resurrection of CASSANDRA-3527.
> Another is a more general framework to implement the ability to expose yaml
> configuration information. So it would be an alternate approach to
> CASSANDRA-7370.
> A possible implementation would be in terms of CASSANDRA-7443, but I am not
> presupposing.
