Installing DataStax Studio 6.8
|
You can install DataStax Studio in a Docker container. DataStax maintains Studio images for Docker. For information on downloading and using the Studio image, see the DataStax Docker docs. |
Notebooks created in earlier versions of DataStax Studio can be used with new Studio versions:
-
When the new version of Studio starts, all notebooks created in an earlier version are automatically upgraded.
-
Notebooks are not impacted, lost, or corrupted with the upgrade.
-
After the notebooks are upgraded, they are no longer compatible with the earlier version.
For upgrade information, see Upgrading DataStax Studio.
