Using 2.0.x, we hit https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2380 when deploying in a VPC. We worked around this by adding a hostname in /etc/hosts. Apart from that, nothing specific. We use only internal ip's, no public ip's and no broadcast etc. It works very well. /Johan From: Alain

Hello Alain, We switched from EC2 to VPC a couple of years ago.  The process for us was long, slow, and multi step for our (at the time) 6 node cluster. In our case, we don't need to consider multi-DC.  However, in our infrastructure we were rapidly running out of IP addresses, and wished to

I don't think traffic will flow between classic ec2 and vpc directly. There is some kind of gateway bridge instance that sits between, acting as a NAT. I would think that would cause new challenges for: -transitions -clients Sorry this response isn't heavy on content! I'm curious how this

I think you can define VPC subnet to be public (to have public + private IPs) or private only. Any insight regarding snitches ? What snitch do you guys use ? 2014-06-05 15:06 GMT+02:00 William Oberman ober...@civicscience.com: I don't think traffic will flow between classic ec2 and vpc

A general thought, if you're using AWS for this, I'd strongly recommend you consider using OpsWorks and custom chef recipes for your node deployment if its an option for you. The easy of provisioning new nodes without the need for snapshotting is certainly worth the hassle, and there are already

Well if you are talking about the transition I think we are going to do it this way - Existing cluster out of any VPC - DC1 - New VPC cluster, with subnet private + public - DC2 - Add / Rebuild DC2 - Switch clients from DC1 to DC2 - Remove DC1 - Switch client inside the VPC - Remove public VPC
