What do you mean by snitch?
Answer / Shivani Agarwal
'Snitch' is a term used in Apache Cassandra to describe the method used for routing data across nodes within a cluster. A Snitch determines which replicas of a given partition go on which node in the cluster, based on the 'token' associated with the partition key and certain rules defined by the snitch type (like Ec2Snitch, GossipingPropertyFileSnitch, etc.).
