Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-7622:
----------------------------------------------
Sure, but {{SHOW}} is a common enough command in DB world (postgres and mysql
both have it) that I wouldn't mind having it implemented in C* - paired with
{{SET}} for the write side.
Once we have that, we can consider whether or not we actually have use cases
for general purpose virtual tables.
> Implement virtual tables
> ------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-7622
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7622
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Tupshin Harper
> Assignee: Jeff Jirsa
> Fix For: 3.x
>
>
> There are a variety of reasons to want virtual tables, which would be any
> table that would be backed by an API, rather than data explicitly managed and
> stored as sstables.
> One possible use case would be to expose JMX data through CQL as a
> resurrection of CASSANDRA-3527.
> Another is a more general framework to implement the ability to expose yaml
> configuration information. So it would be an alternate approach to
> CASSANDRA-7370.
> A possible implementation would be in terms of CASSANDRA-7443, but I am not
> presupposing.
