             Summary: Add Option to Timebox write timestamps
                 Key: CASSANDRA-18352
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18352
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Jordan West
            Assignee: Jordan West


In several cases it is desirable to have client provided timestamps generated 
at the application-level. This can be error prone, however. In particular, 
applications can choose timestamps that may be nonsensical for a given 
application. One dangerous manifestation of this is the "doomstone" (a 
tombstone far in the future of any realistic write). This feature would allow 
either operators or users to specify a minimum and maximum timebound of 
"reasonable" timestamps. The default would be negative infinity, positive 
infinity to maintain backwards compatibility. Writes that are USING TIMESTAMP 
with a timestamp outside of the timebox will see an exception.
