---------------------------------------
Summary: Make hint TTL customizable
Key: CASSANDRA-5988
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5988
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Reporter: Oleg Kibirev
Currently time to live for stored hints is hardcoded to be gc_grace_seconds.
This causes problems for applications using backdated deletes as a form of
optimistic locking. Hints for updates made to the same data on which delete was
attempted can persist for days, making it impossible to determine if delete
succeeded by doing read(ALL) after a reasonable delay. We need a way to
explicitly configure hint TTL, either through schema parameter or through a
yaml file.
