Cassandra is used in a message process system. The table will be created at a fixed time each day. We want the table can be created before the message arrived. So I want to guarantee table is created in all the nodes.

So my question is how to guarantee “Table_test” is created in all the nodes before any R/W opertions? Thanks.

Otherwise there is a small risk of outdated data being served if a node goes offline longer than hints timeouts. Somewhat looser options that can assure multiple copies are written, as you probably know, are quorum or a hard coded value. This applies to a typical installation with a substantial number of nodes of course, not a small 2-3 node cluster. I am curious why localStrategy when you have such concerns about data consistency that you want to assure all nodes get data written. Can you elaborate on your use case? ....... “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow!

So I want to know whether table is created in all the nodes, should I add consistency_level setting to the above statement to make sure “create table” will be executed in all the nodes? Thanks.
