That is not 100% true. I would think RDBMS and XML would be the most common importers but the real flexibility is with the TikaEntityProcessor [1] that comes w/ DIH ...
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/TikaEntityProcessor Im pretty sure it would be able to handle any type of serde (in the case of Cassandra I believe it is Thrift) on it's own w/ the dep libraries. I find the TEP to be underutilized sometimes, I think it's because the docs on the DIH lack more info on what it can do.
