Nate McCall commented on CASSANDRA-1311:
----------------------------------------
That brings up a point - what about DROP TRIGGER semantics? I'd call that
'minimum essential' as well.
bq. We should bring up the trigger class in a separate class loader (or some
other method) so they can be reloaded.
Appealing, but two non-trivial issues with dynamic classloading, IME:
- leaks that keep the classloader from getting collected and end up with an OOM
in PermGen that takes down the whole JVM (number of 'public static final' refs
in cassandra code base could/will be linked to will exacerbate this)
- coordinating such in a cluster == hard (tomcat folks never really got it
right)
You could get all OSGi, but that's a mess unto itself.
Otherwise, super glad to see this issue resurrected :)

> Asynchronous triggers is a basic mechanism to implement various use cases of
> asynchronous execution of application code at database side. For example to
> support indexes and materialized views, online analytics, push-based data
> propagation.
