Cool, it's something that Microsoft SQL Server (Enterprise edition) offers out of the box (Peer-2-Peer replication). The only problem with P2P replication is that, at large scale, requires massive amounts of bandwidth to keep everything synced, and it gets worse the more nodes you add.

Depends how things are replicated. In Dynamo style replication everything isn't replicated everywhere. Based on consistent hashing, and how vnodes etc are configured, a key lands itself in more than one nodes so that things are generally available. So scale-out in a dynamo-like system happens more gracefully.
