The idea of the seed list is that it’s a list of well known nodes, and it’s easier operationally to say we have one list of well known nodes that is used by the servers and the clients. > 1) I am also thinking to put this way here I am not sure this good or bad > if i conigure 4 serves into one VIP ( virtual IP/virtual DNS) > and specifying that DSN in the code as ContactPoint, so that that VIP is > smart enough to route to different nodes. Too complicated. > 2) Is that problem if i use multiple Data centers in future ? You only need to give the client the local seeds, it will discover all the nodes.
