-------------------------------------------
Of the two, CASSANDRA-1585 is actually generally useful.
> Aliasing Keyspaces
> ------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-5063
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5063
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Carl Yeksigian
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: ponies
>
> The way we are working with our cassandra is that we have multiple keyspaces,
> each of them representing the same data in different forms. We would like to
> have a single name representing the current production keyspace, while we are
> working on backloading our development keyspaces.
> The proposed work flow would be:
> - create keyspace prod1
> - alias keyspace prod to prod1
> - create keyspace prod2
> - backload prod2
> - alias keyspace prod to prod2
> - drop keyspace prod1
> It would be really nice if we weren't referring to "prod1" and "prod2",
> rather always referencing "prod", and the aliasing would happen in Cassandra.
