------------------------------------------

             Summary: Transform operation
                 Key: CASSANDRA-6870
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6870
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Edward Capriolo
            Assignee: Edward Capriolo
            Priority: Minor


Compare and swap uses paxos to only update a value only if some criteria is 
met. If I understand correctly we should be able to use this feature to provide 
a wider variety of server side operations. 

For example inside a paxos transaction performing a slice and then using a 
function to manipulate the slice. You could accomplish features like append and 
increment this way. 

I took a stab at doing this. I **think** I did it correctly. Comments welcome.
