The official Apache Spark connector for Apache Cassandra, letting Spark applications read Cassandra tables as RDDs and DataFrames, write them back, and run arbitrary CQL queries. It supports Cassandra 2.1+, Spark 1.0-3.5, and recent versions add vector type support for AI/RAG workloads.
Use cases
- read cassandra tables as spark dataframes
- write spark rdds to cassandra
- run cql queries from spark applications
- join spark data with cassandra data
- process cassandra vector data for RAG pipelines
- partition spark rdds by cassandra replica
When to choose
- your Spark job needs to read or write Cassandra at scale
- you want server-side filtering via CQL WHERE clauses in Spark
- you need Cassandra vector type support for AI workloads
When to avoid
- you use a database other than Cassandra
- you need a pure OLTP client without Spark
- your Spark or Cassandra versions fall outside the compatibility matrix
