  • Added global logging. Logging is no longer configured per session.
  • DC-aware load balancing policy is now the default and uses the DC of the first connected contact point. The DC-aware policy now has settings to control the number of remote hosts used in each DC (after exhausting the hosts in the local DC) and whether to ignore local consistency levels.
  • Added socket options for TCP nodelay and keepalive: cass_cluster_set_tcp_nodelay() and cass_cluster_set_tcp_keepalive().

Other

  • CassSession objects must now be explicitly allocated/freed using cass_session_new() and cass_session_free(). cass_cluster_connect() has been removed and replaced by cass_session_connect().
  • SIGPIPE is ignored on driver threads
  • Connection timeout now covers the entire connection handshake instead of just the socket connection.
  • UUID API has been updated to use explict state via CassUuidGen instead of using internal global state. See cass_uuid_gen_new() and corresponding functions.

1.0.0-beta5

Nov 20, 2014

Features

  • Added SSL support
  • Added token-aware load balancing. It''s enabled by default. It can be disable using cass_cluster_set_token_aware_routing().
  • Added functions to get schema metadata, cass_session_get_schema() can be use to get a snapshot of the schema metadata and cass_meta_*() functions can be used to retrieve detailed information about keyspaces, tables, and columns.

Other

  • Significantly improved request throughput by batching socket writes. Batch sizes can be configured using the function cass_cluster_set_max_requests_per_flush(). The default is 128 because the maximum write size is bounded by the number of pipelined requests per connection (for version 1 and 2 of the native protocol).
  • Added backpressure mechanism that can be configured for by the number of outstanding bytes and the number of requests on a connection. These can be configured using cass_cluster_set_write_bytes_high_water_mark(), cass_cluster_set_write_bytes_low_water_mark(), cass_cluster_set_pending_requests_high_water_mark(), and cass_cluster_set_pending_requests_low_water_mark().
  • Fixed a crash caused by a request timing out followed by a call to the connection read callback then the write callback.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented the driver from recovering from a full cluster outage.
  • Fixed an issue that allowed uv_queue_work() to be called from an application thread.
  • Added logic to prevent redundant node refreshes when establishing a new connection from multiple IO workers.
  • Fixed a crash caused by Cassandra 2.1.0 not returning metadata on execute requests.
  • Fixed a memory leak that could leak request handlers if the control connection ran out of stream ids.
  • Fixed a crash caused by calling an invalid timeout callback when waiting for connection to become available in a pool.
  • Build will use an external version of Boost if present.

1.0.0-beta4

Sep 11, 2014

Features

  • Added node discovery and now handle topology/status change events
  • Queries that modify schema wait for cluster schema agreement
  • Added DC aware load balancing policy. The default policy is set to round robin.
  • Added new methods to configure the load balancing policy, cass_cluster_set_load_balance_round_robin() and cass_cluster_set_load_balance_dc_aware()
  • It is now possible for a session future to return an error when connecting to a cluster. This can occur when the driver is unable to connect to any contact points or the provided authentication credentials are invalid.

1.0.0-beta3

Aug 13, 2014

Features

  • Added callbacks to futures, cass_future_set_callback()
  • Added plaintext authentication support, cass_cluster_set_credentials()
  • Added map iterator, cass_iterator_from_map(), key and value pairs can be retrieved using cass_iterator_get_map_key() and cass_iterator_get_map_value()
  • Values can be bound by name (statements created from prepared statements only)
  • Values can be retrieved by name from result sets

Other

  • Reduced overhead of prepared statements
  • Small performance improvement for all queries via reduced allocations

1.0.0-beta2

Jul 17, 2014

Features

  • Removed C++1x dependency
  • Support for Cassandra 1.2 (native protocol version 1)
  • Support for automatic paging
  • Added method to set serial consistency on statement
  • Added batch type to batches
  • Exposed options cass_cluster_set_max_pending_requests(), cass_cluster_set_max_simultaneous_creation(), and cass_cluster_set_max_simultaneous_requests_threshold()
  • Added cass_result_column_name() to get column name from a result set

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed StreamManager so it no longer causes stack corruption
  • Fixed issue where connections would log "'Timed out during startup' error on startup for ..." when a Session was closed while a connection was during its startup process
  • Fixed Row and collections iterator so they return the first and last item properly
  • Improved logic for creating new connections so it''s based on request throughput

Other

  • Removed the setopt method added set methods for all options
  • Removed the getopt method
  • cass_batch_new() and cass_collection_new() no longer take a consistency parameter
  • cass_collection_new() now requires a collection type parameter
  • is_map parameter removed from cass_statement_bind_collection()

1.0.0-beta1

Jun 16, 2014

Features
