Is it possible to connect to multiple clusters?

[chwevans]

I was wondering if it was possible to connect to multiple logically distinct clusters. In my use case data is stored across multiple clusters and it would be convenient to be able to choose which cluster is targeted.

Hello,

Unfortunately is not possible at this moment.

This is on my todo list but I have no idea when will be implemented.

I took a stab at this. The change is not complete, but posting this here so I get some feedback on my work.

The api interface wil change because every api on erlcass.erl need to take an atom identifying the relevant cluster. If this looks reasonable, then I can send you a pull request in a couple of weeks.

Hello Silviu!
Do you have any plans to add this feature?

Hello Silviu. Are you planing to add support for multiple clusters in the nearest future ?

I am looking at ScyllaDb (which is working correctly with Erlcass driver). And researching another Cassandra drivers so I can connect both databases and direct whole traffic to Cassandra and Scylla

It would be simply awesome and time saving feature if you make Erlcass working with multiple clusters

please let me know if you have any updates.

thank you in advance
