Here are two things I descoped from 4.0 and plan to pick up after 4.0 release
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15566 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15566> - Repair coordinator can hang under some cases. Aka repair has many cases where it can become unresponsive and not reliant; so work to improve it. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15399 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15399> - Add ability to track state in repair. Rather than rely on logs to see what repair is doing, add APIs to expose what’s going on with repair, and what repair has done. > On Apr 8, 2021, at 8:22 AM, Benjamin Lerer <b.le...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On our side, the list of improvements we plan to deliver for the next > release are: > > Query side improvements: > > * Storage Attached Index or SAI.
