Cassandra Simulator
-------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-561
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-561
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.4
Environment: RHEL 4.X, 5.X
Reporter: Wei Li
Fix For: 0.4
Motivations:
=========
Cassandra is a distributed system. This nature makes it harder for developers
and testers to rapidly develop and test applications without proper hardware
and network setups. It is particular hard for testing, when we want to know how
system behaves under stressed network conditions, hardware changes and
failures, and many other scenarios. The motivations of the building a Cassandra
simulator is to provide a tool to simplify procedures to achieve above needs.
Requirements:
===========
Simulator is a separate project from Canssandra main project. It does not
insert and/or modify any code in Cassandra main project, rather it operates as
an additional service in Cassandra node(See enclosed doc for details).
Simulator can be started in two modes: Simulated mode and "pure" Cassandra
mode. The design Requirements of the simulator are:
* To simulate multiple node operations within single linux box
* To simulate Hardware conditions, such as adding new nodes, node out of
service, etc.
* To simulate network conditions, message delays, drops, etc.
* To carry out read/write operations at the simulated environment
* To provide APIs to access logging information
