             Summary: EC2 seed provider using Datastax Reflector
                 Key: CASSANDRA-7547
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7547
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Pekka Enberg
            Priority: Minor


This is a request for comments. I am using this to build our EC2 AMIs but I thought I'd ask if this makes sense as a generic feature for Cassandra.

Cassandra cluster auto-configuration on EC2 uses the Datastax reflector service for discovering seed nodes. Instead of relying on external scripts, this patch implements EC2 seed provider that uses the Datastax reflector service.

This is particularly useful for EC2 AMIs that don't include a complete userspace (such as those built with OSv) where we ideally want to push as much configuration to the application itself.
