-------------------------------------
Summary: Repair should allow repairing particular data centers to reduce
WAN usage (was: Reduce WAN traffic while doing repairs)
> Repair should allow repairing particular data centers to reduce WAN usage

> Key: CASSANDRA-6218
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6218
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core, Tools
> Reporter: sankalp kohli
> Assignee: Jimmy Mårdell
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.4

> The way we send out data that does not match over WAN can be improved.
> Example: Say there are four nodes(A,B,C,D) which are replica of a range we
> are repairing. A, B is in DC1 and C,D is in DC2. If A does not have the data
> which other replicas have, then we will have following streams
> 1) A to B and back
> 2) A to C and back(Goes over WAN)
> 3) A to D and back(Goes over WAN)
> One of the ways of doing it to reduce WAN traffic is this.
> 1) Repair A and B only with each other and C and D with each other starting
> at same time t.
> 2) Once these repairs have finished, A,B and C,D are in sync with respect to
> time t.
> 3) Now run a repair between A and C, the streams which are exchanged as a
> result of the diff will also be streamed to B and D via A and C(C and D
> behaves like a proxy to the streams).
> For a replication of DC1:2,DC2:2, the WAN traffic will get reduced by 50% and
> even more for higher replication factors.
