Description
Will you design and implement Cassandra's storage engine API like MyCassandra?
MyCassandra provides extensible architecture for pluging other storage engines to Cassandra like MySQL.
https://github.com/sunsuk7tp/MyCassandra/
It could be advantageous for Cassandra to make the storage engine pluggable. This could allow Cassandra to
- deal with potential use cases where maybe the current sstables are not the best fit
- allow several types of internal storage formats (at the same time) optimized for different data types
- allow easier experiments and research on new storage formats (encourage research institutions to do strange things with Cassandra)
- there could also be potential advantages from better isolation of the data engine in terms of less risk for data corruptions if other parts of Cassandra change
