Description

Here is my scenario:
I want to have one datacenter specialized for operations "DCO" and another for historical/audit "DCH". Replication will be used between DCO and DCH.

When TTL expires on DCO and data is deleted I'd like the data on DCH to be kept for other purposes. Ideally a different TTL could be set in DCH.

I guess this also implies that replication should be done only in DCO => DCH direction so that data is not re-created. But that's secondary, DCH data is not meant to be modified.

Is this kind of feature feasible for future versions of Cassandra? If not, would you have some pointers to modify Cassandra in order to achieve this functionality?

Thank you.
