[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-620) Add per-keyspace replication factor (possibly even replication strategy)

["Gary Dusbabek (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-620?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12797152#action_12797152 ] 

Gary Dusbabek commented on CASSANDRA-620:
-----------------------------------------

My thoughts here are to push the replication factor down into the replication strategy (where it exists in the code already), and then push the replication strategy down into the keyspace.

I don't think we can easily do the replication factor without bringing in table-specific replication strategies as well, simply for the reason that the AbstractReplicationStrategy member of the StorageService singleton no longer makes sense.

> not 100% sure this makes sense but it would allow maintaining system metadata in a replicated-across-entire-cluster keyspace (without ugly special casing), as well as making Cassandra more flexible as a shared resource for multiple apps
