Hi everyone, We're looking for community members, who would like to maintain Flink's Cassandra connector [1] going forward. The connector currently is only available as a Sink for DataStream users and the original contributors are unable to work on further improvements.
An overview of some of the things that are missing on the Cassandra connector: * Not using the Unified Sink API [2] or ASync API [3] * Can't be used in the Table API / SQL * Not available as a Source * Not available for Lookups * Not using the latest supported versions for Cassandra If you would like to take on this responsibility or can join this effort in a supporting role, please reach out! If we can't find maintainers for this connector, I'll open up a vote to deprecate this connector and remove it. I'm looking forward to your thoughts.
