Along those lines... We sought to use triggers for external synchronization. If you read through this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1311
You'll see the idea of leveraging a commit log for synchronization, via triggers. We went ahead and implemented this concept in: https://github.com/hmsonline/cassandra-triggers With that, via AOP, you get handed the mutation as things change. We used it for synchronizing SOLR. fwiw, -brian On Sep 20, 2012, at 7:18 PM, Michael Kjellman wrote: > +1.
