DataStax Python driver for Apache Cassandra®

New features and bug fixes are developed on the latest minor version of the driver, and users are encouraged to stay current with those minor releases. APIs are maintained stable according to semantic versioning conventions, and upgrades should be trivial.

Earlier versions of DataStax Cassandra drivers did not have full support of DSE features.
