Jacques, It sounds like you are implying that the Drill cluster could span both MapR clusters. I think that is true.
But I also think that most practical situations, as well as what Jim was asking about, is a case which will have all the drillbits in question next to one cluster and accessing a remote cluster. That should also work.
