What is a potential downside of setting a very low phi threshold in Cassandra's failure detection? Decreased sensitivity to actual node failures Higher network latency due to increased gossip traffic Reduced data consistency across the cluster Increased false positives leading to unnecessary node removals None Show Hint A low phi threshold can lead to increased false positives, where nodes are incorrectly marked as down, causing unnecessary node removals and potential disruptions. 2. How does Cassandra ensure that the Gossip protocol remains efficient in large clusters? By limiting the number of nodes each node gossips with at a time By using a centralized server to manage gossip traffic By increasing the frequency of gossip messages By prioritizing gossip messages based on node importance None Show Hint Cassandra limits the number of nodes each node gossips with at a time to ensure scalability and efficiency, preventing network overload in large clusters.
