DataStax driver compatibility with DSE and Apache Cassandra
DataStax support for Apache Cassandra
- The DataStax Distribution of Apache Cassandra (DDAC) is based on the DataStax enhanced version of Apache Cassandra™ 3.11 included in DataStax Enterprise (DSE) 5.1. Patch releases for DDAC and maintenance longevity correspond to the DSE 5.1 patches and maintenance schedule.
- DDAC supports the DataStax drivers for Apache Cassandra and DataStax Bulk Loader (dsbulk).
- DataStax does not support open-source Cassandra. You can download the latest open-source versions from Apache Cassandra.
- As of June 2019, DataStax produced documentation for Cassandra 2.1, Cassandra 3.0, CQL
3.3, and CQL 3.1 are no longer supported or maintained. Content for the following DataStax
produced Cassandra documents were last updated in early January 2017:
- Cassandra 3.x Linux and Windows
- Cassandra 3.0 Windows
- Cassandra 2.2 Linux and Windows
- Cassandra 2.0
- Cassandra 1.2
- For open-source Cassandra, see the Apache Cassandra documentation.
