No. inter-node communication uses MessagingService that itself uses OutboundTcpConnection that just write serialized Message to a tcp socket (using a message queue). None of this uses thrift. > and the gossiper communication takes place using tcp and message queue? Yes, but actually gossip uses MessagingService too. So gossip communication is really just one type of inter-node communication. -- Sylvain > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://cassandra-user-incubator-apache-org.3065146.n2.nabble.com/Inter-node-communication-over-UDP-tp6358459p6384978.html > Sent from the cassandra-u...@incubator.apache.org mailing list archive at > Nabble.com. >
