While the Python driver has built-in mechanisms for determining whether nodes are up or down, response latency and other metrics, its primary design is to allow CRUD operations between your application and the Cassandra cluster.

The recommended monitoring solution for DSE clusters is OpsCenter.

If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to log a ticket with DataStax Support so one of our engineers can assist you directly. Cheers!
