I am sorry, but I do not understand fully. I would appreciate it if some one could explain with more verbosity for me. I do not understand why data insertion is even, but replication is not. I do not understand how to solve the problem. What does "bumping" tokens entail - Is that going to change my insertion distribution? I had no idea you can create different logical keyspaces ... and I am not sure what that exactly means... or that I even want to do it. Is there a clear solution to "fixing" the problem I laid out, and getting replication data evenly distributed between racks in each DC? Sorry again for needing more verbosity - I am learning as I go with this stuff. I appreciate everyones help. -Eric
