But this way you duplicate the entire dataset RF times over. It's very very
expensive.
It is a common practice to run Spark on a separate Cassandra (virtual)
datacenter but it's done
in order to isolate the analytic workload from the realtime workload for
isolation and low latency guarantees.
We addressed this problem elsewhere, beyond this scope.
