Re: Java Driver 3.0 for Apache Cassandra - Documentation Outdated?

It’s not about whether DataStax has great documentation or not. That’s fine - it’s about the perception of the *first* place to look for that documentation. If someone came to Apache OODT, Nutch, Tika, Lucene, Spark, etc., and we had great documentation at JPL to go along with these, as a PMC me

Re: Java Driver 3.0 for Apache Cassandra - Documentation Outdated?

I think it comes down to having full time tech writers employed and paid. If Datastax has the $$ to provide a significant benefit to the community (well thought out documentation) that's better than little or no documentation (if it was only done via developers who most likely won't document or

Excellent, why am I the first person to ask that, and why didn’t a PMC member point that out right away and why did it take me asking to point to the Apache docs. This is what I am talking about in terms of the Apache community.. On 6/6/16, 4:47 PM, "Michael Kjellman" wrote: >http://cassand

Re: Java Driver 3.0 for Apache Cassandra - Documentation Outdated?

Thanks for bringing this up, but the Java Driver is a separate project maintained here: https://github.com/datastax/java-driver with it's own mailing list: https://groups.google.com/a/lists.datastax.com/forum/#!forum/java-driver-user Documentation for the driver is also maintained by the communit

Java Driver 3.0 for Apache Cassandra - Documentation Outdated?

Team, I was checking the documentation for TupleType in DataStax docs here and the code example was like this: TupleType theType = TupleType.of(DataType.cint(), DataType.text(), DataType.cfloat()); But in th

Hello, In cassandra's documentation page http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cassandra/2.0/cassandra/configuration/configCassandra_yaml_r.html, in the section about start_native_transport, the following is written: > "Currently, only the Thrift server is started by default because the native

Hi. I also believe that wiki are not so good for a community managed wiki even thought it is used as "de facto" tool for opensource projects doc. I suggest that we use drupal's book module, it is really full featured and easy to use. I would be happy to do some wireframing and set-up a demo if

Re: Cassandra documentation (and in this case the datastax anti-entropy docs)

I agree that wikis are great for contribution; what I meant was that they're rather poor at organising information for ease of discovery, especially by new users. I still like the idea of some more structured docs being managed by the community though. On 1 April 2011 02:16, Eric Evans wrote: >

Re: Cassandra documentation (and in this case the datastax anti-entropy docs)

I couldn't agree more, the DataStax docs (try saying that 3 times fast) are definitely the most complete and user-friendly source for end-users, while the wiki contains a lot more detailed information on the architecture and internals. Ideally, I'd like to see the user docs be in a place that the

In response to the apparent mass confusion about nodetool repair that became evidence in the thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/user@cassandra.apache.org/msg11755.html I started looking around to see what is actually claimed about repair. I found that the Datastax docs: http://www.datasta
