I use the same nodes as the seed list nodes for that DC. 

The idea of the seed list is that it’s a list of well known nodes, and it’s 
easier operationally to say we have one list of well known nodes that is used 
by the servers and the clients.

Too complicated.

You only need to give the client the local seeds, it will discover all the 
nodes.

AddContractPoint /VIP

2013-12-06 Thread chandra Varahala
Greetings,

I have 4 node cassandra cluster that will grow upt to 10 nodes,we are using
 CQL  Java client to access the  data.
What is the good practice to put in the code as addContactPoint ie.,how
many servers ?

1) I am also thinking to put this way here   I am not sure this good or bad
if i conigure   4 serves into one VIP ( virtual IP/virtual DNS)
and specifying that DSN in the code as ContactPoint,  so that that VIP is
smart enough to route to different nodes.

2) Is that problem if i use multiple Data centers in future ?


thanks
