-------------------------------
Summary: Default setting (yaml) for SSTable compression
Key: CASSANDRA-12937
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12937
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Configuration
Reporter: mck
Assignee: mck
Priority: Minor
In many situations the choice of compression for sstables is more relevant to
the disks attached than to the schema and data.
This issue is to add to cassandra.yaml a default value for sstable compression
that new tables will inherit (instead of the defaults found in
{{CompressionParams.DEFAULT}}.
Examples where this can be relevant are filesystems that do on-the-fly
compression (btrfs, zfs) or specific disk configurations or even specific C*
versions (see CASSANDRA-10995 ).
