Hi Shravan,

We did not see any down sides of using the GossipingPropertyFileSnitch, in fact 
being able to handcraft the DC allowed us to easily create “virtual” cassandra 
datacenters within the google DC, something we have used for splitting multi 
tenanted clusters. I am not sure how easy that would have been with the 
GoogleCloudSnitch.

Looking at the code for the various snitches, obviously the loading of the dc 
and rack information is different, but once it is loaded, the data is used in 
the same way.

So I can’t see any problem with continuing to use the 
GossipingPropertyFileSnitch, although that comes with the one caveat that I 
have never tried it on Amazon, only GCP.

 Thanks

Thanks Paul. Glad to know that you are speaking on the very subject soon.

 Even though you are on GCP, you are still tied with 
GossipingPropertyFileSnitch and not enjoying the GoogleCloudSnitch. If it is 
not too much to ask, other than hand stitching RACK and DC in 
cassandra-rackdc.properties are there any down sides of not using 
GoogleCloudSnitch in your case and EC2Snitch in my case?

Thanks,
Shravan

Sravan,

When we migrated to google we just continued using the 
GossipingPropertyFileSnitch, we did not try and use the google version of the 
snitch.

The only downside is the need to manually setup the cassandra-rackdc.properties 
file, but for us that was controlled by puppet anyway, so it was not an issue.

Thanks

PS Myself and Gilberto Müeller are presenting at Datastax Accelerate on this 
very subject, how we migrated 91 clusters to Google, including what problems we 
had along the way. It would be worth you attending that session if you are 
there.
