Not sure if it is that simple, a quorum can fail with writes happening on some nodes (there is no rollback). Also there is no concept of atomic compare-and-swap.
Good points. I suppose what I need is for the client to implement the part of ACID that C* does not. So, right off the bat, can anyone tell me if that is even possible conceptually? If so, please throw out some terms that I can wiki and some Java API's would be much appreciated as well. Also, can I accomplish this or make things easier by imposing some restrictions, such as only allowing single-user access to the data for certain operations?
Thanks!
