Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-2749:
-------------------------------------------
I don't think taking compression as a model makes sense. With compression, it's
fine to set the option globally and each node can start using compression when
it gets the schema update. But this affects the storage engine "below" schema.
I think it's reasonable to make the change offline, especially if an upgrade
tool is provided to make it simple.

> Currently Cassandra supports multiple data directories but no way to control
> what sstables are placed where. Particularly for systems with mixed SSDs and
> rotational disks, it would be nice to pin frequently accessed columnfamilies
> to the SSDs.
> Postgresql does this with tablespaces
> (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/manage-ag-tablespaces.html) but we
> should probably avoid using that name because of confusing similarity to
> "keyspaces."
