Yuki Morishita commented on CASSANDRA-2478:
-------------------------------------------
Couple of comments on protocol proposal:
* Support for secure connection(SSL support) - we can implement this later, but
I think it is better to mention in protocol. Do we need to connect to secure
port from the beginning or we upgrade to SSL after handshake when server
supports secure connection?
* READY messages body - We may want to reserve some space for server response
(possibly, server capabilities), using [option list]
* Types in metadata - proposal states it is sent in <string> format, but is it
better to use flags? When custom type is used, we can append FQCN of that type
after the flag.
> Custom CQL protocol/transport

> A custom wire protocol would give us the flexibility to optimize for our
> specific use-cases, and eliminate a troublesome dependency (I'm referring to
> Thrift, but none of the others would be significantly better). Additionally,
> RPC is bad fit here, and we'd do better to move in the direction of something
> that natively supports streaming.
> I don't think this is as daunting as it might seem initially. Utilizing an
> existing server framework like Netty, combined with some copy-and-paste of
> bits from other FLOSS projects would probably get us 80% of the way there.
