+1 To get such a thing into Tomcat, it would probably have to have the following features: 1. Be relatively self-contained -- i.e. not require much in the way of changes to existing classes 2. Not have any external dependencies (new JAR files, etc.). This might be a problem, depending on whether your code uses the REST API for Cassandra or a direct Java binding. 3. Include good documentation for how to set it up. See the existing session-persistence documentation for a guide, and aim to do a better job ;) 4. Include test cases and potentially instructions for setting-up a test environment (i.e. you're gonna need a working Cassandra instance). If the above are not met, you'll likely get a lot of push-back, including mine. I know there's a lurker on this list who maintains a memcached-oriented session manager and we've never really considered including that in Tomcat because of (I'd imagine) dependency issues. In any case, even if it doesn't get included in Tomcat, you could always post it to the Wiki as contributed code. Just make sure you include great documentation otherwise nobody will ever use it.
