datacentre" a logical group *within* an overall cluster? So I can create a separate "datacentre" for each node, and if I write to that node the data will be forced to stay in that datacentre, i.e. that node? I do apologise for the noobish questions, my attention is currently split between investigating several possible solutions. I rather favour Cassandra though, if I can hobble it appropriately. Kind regards, -Colin MacDonald-

ally is a question of: *can* I cripple Cassandra in this way, and if so how? Thanks for the response. -Colin MacDonald-

Setting up Cassandra to store on a specific node and not replicate
