Juan, No; that would mean every single write to HBase has to wait for an ACK from a remote data center, which would decrease your cluster throughput dramatically. If you need that, consider other database solutions.

Given that replication happens asynchronously the replication strategy has an "eventually consistent" policy. I was considering using this feature for Production / Disaster Recovery setup. Is there a way to enforce Consistency so that if my PROD environment should ever go down, I can 100% sure that DR will be completely up to date? Thank you, Juan
