DataStax drivers

You can use the same DataStax driver for Apache Cassandra and DataStax Enterprise. DataStax unified the DSE and OSS drivers to avoid confusion and enhance the OSS drivers with some of the features in the DSE drivers. As of January 2022, the DSE drivers are no longer supported, and all new driver functionality is applied only in the unified DataStax drivers. For more information about this change, see the Better Drivers for Cassandra blog post.

For general documentation about using DataStax drivers, see Developing driver applications with Apache Cassandra and DataStax Enterprise. For language-specific driver documentation, see the list below (the starting versions for the unified drivers are indicated in parentheses).
