You can find version 0.03 of the Net::Cassandra::Easy Perl module at: http://search.cpan.org/search?query=cassandra+easy&mode=all
(it may show 0.021 but that's the same as 0.03, I just uploaded with the incorrect version number accidentally) The docs explain how to use it with examples for the common cases. There are only three N::C::Easy methods: connect(), get(), and mutate() so it's pretty easy to learn and use, from a one-liner or from a large program. Please let me know if you have bugs or suggestions. N::C::Easy will track cassandra.thrift closely but also will be able to switch to Avro or another API easily since it avoids Thrift-specific code on the user side as much as possible. You can also use the Net::Cassandra module by Leon Brocard, of course. It works fine and is much more Thrift-oriented. Ted
