Hi Chris <personal opinion ahoy>
Spark is a Mesos native, I'd have no hesitation running it on Mesos. Cassandra not so much - that's not to disparage the work people are putting in there, I think it's really interesting. But personally with complex beasts like Cassandra I want to be running as 'stock' as possible, as it makes it easier to learn from other peoples experiences.
