Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-197:
--------------------------------------

How is the client going to know the Partitioner, ReplicaPlacementStrategy, and 
ReplicationFactor? Are non-java clients expected to re-implement the 
Partitioner and ReplicaPlacementStrategy? 

Unless I'm missing something, a token-to-node map doesn't seem very useful in 
the general sense without these.

> Expose ring map to client for more direct access

> For certain applications, it would be nice if a read is sent to a node that 
> owns the data locally. This saves an extra network hop. To do that, a client 
> will need to cache the ring map and use it to figure out the nodes owning a 
> row.
