Hi Flavio, I like the idea of “adaptable configuration” where you specify a config value as a % of some cluster resource (with relatively conservative defaults). Salting is somewhat of a gray area though as it’s not config based, but driven by your DDL. One solution you could implement on top of Phoenix is scripting for DDL that fills in the salt bucket parameter based on cluster size. Thanks, James
