I have done some more research. My question now is: 1. From my tests I see that it matters a lot whether the co-ordinator node is local (geographically) to the client or not. I will have a cassandra cluster where nodes will be distributed across the globe. Say 3 in US east_cost, 3 in US west_coast and 3 in europe. Now, if I can help, I would like to have most of the traffic from my california clients being handled by the west_coast nodes. But incase the west_coast nodes are down or slow, the co-ordinator node can be elsewhere.
What is the best strategy to give different weight to different nodes, where some nodes are preferred over the others. Thanks.
