Chris Lohfink commented on CASSANDRA-7622:
------------------------------------------

How do you create new tables? have a snippet or something?  ie 
https://github.com/clohfink/cassandra/blob/945309719a447c863bb60d3976d6a73d7b2f6863/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/virtual/CompactionStats.java

2 weeks isnt long to wait, and im all for dropping this patch if the other 
implementation is better, but I am not really convinced its any better, just 
different, and in a way that is in some ways worse sounding to me (I am not 
convinced a custom DDL for querying is a good idea). I do have to say though, 
this ticket has been 4 years of bikeshedding, kinda unfortunate timing to wait 
until theres an implementation in review to do it from scratch instead of 
giving feedback.

> 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.
