[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1268) Decoupling from Thrift

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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1268?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12890306#action_12890306 ] 

Gary Dusbabek commented on CASSANDRA-1268:
------------------------------------------

The plan we've discussed is to move over to using avro structures internally, replacing thrift.  I am comfortable with that level of coupling.  Having cassandra classes that duplicates the avro/thrift generated classes is duplication that we'd end up paying for with increased serialization costs.

> Thrift's generated classes, enums and exceptions are being used throughout the core of Cassandra. The following patch removes several simpler dependencies from core packages, especially enums and exceptions.
> The package org.apache.cassandra.db needs a lot more work. Before I start I need to know if I'm on the right track here?
