Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-193:
------------------------------------

I'm making steady progress on this ticket. So far, the work has all been on 
implementing the merkle tree data structure, but I'd like to start thinking 
about integrating the structure soon.

I've been working in the (misnamed) branch 'binary-merkle' on 
http://github.com/stuhood/cassandra-anti-entropy/. I may submit a patch here 
containing just the data structure sometime soon, but it still has a wart that 
I'm not happy about.

> Currently cassandra supports "read repair," i.e., lazy repair when a read is 
> done.  This is better than nothing but is not sufficient for some cases (e.g. 
> catastrophic node failure where you need to rebuild all of a node's data on a 
> new machine).
> Dynamo uses merkle trees here.  This is harder for Cassandra given the CF 
> data model but I suppose we could just hash the serialized CF value.
