Actually, I have been on a few projects where something like that is useful. Gemfire(a grid memory cache) had that feature which we used at another company. On every project I encounter, there is usually one small table somewhereÅ .either meta data or something that is infrequently changing and nice to duplicate on every node. I bet eventually nosql stores may start to add it maybe in a few years, but I guess we are not there yet.
