Chris,

The tools supplied by Apache for documentation, ie, wiki, are awful. No human being should be subjected to those. It would be great if someone of your stature would do something about that for the entire Apache community.

Hi Everyone,

While this may be a current great source of documentation on
Cassandra, and while it exists externally, the PMC should be
be promoting (and hopefully ensuring) that the source of documentation
for Apache Cassandra is here at the ASF.

I’m happy to be corrected that that is the case, and/or that
I’ve missed something, but the first reply to questions like
this from newbies shouldn’t be to point to an external website.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Deepak,

You can try Datastax Docs, they are most extensive and updated
documentation available.
As Cassandra is a fast developing technology I wonder if there is a Book in
the market which covers latest features like Materialized Views/ SASI Index
or new SSTable Format. I believe the best starting point would be the
Academy Tutorials and further Planet Cassandra - A week in Cassandra series
provides good overview of blogs and developments by Cassandra Evangelists.
It also provides link of top blogs which help understand internal working
of the Database.

However if you still feel the need, you may refer to books, here are some
that I know of -
