This is probably right. I don't know, I'm not an expert in Nova, or its scheduler. However, to make it possible for us (ie: downstream distributions and/or OpenStack users) to use Cassandra, you have to solve one of the below issues: 1/ Cassandra developers upstream should start caring about OpenJDK, and make sure that it is also a good platform for it. They should stop caring only about the Oracle JVM. ... or ... 2/ Oracle should make its JVM free software. As there is no hope for any of the above, Cassandra is a no-go for downstream distributions. So, by all means, propose a new back-end, implement it, profit. But that back-end cannot be Cassandra the way it is now.
