Spring-data-cassandra uses cassandra-driver-core by default, which is not the DataStax enterprise driver. It was simple to replace the default with dse-java-driver-core version 1.x, as outline here, for instance - https://docs.datastax.com/en/developer/java-driver-dse/1.2/faq/ . This does not seem to be the case with dse-java-driver-core version 2.x, which changes the package structure within the driver.
My questions:
- Has anyone had any experience using the newest enterprise driver with spring-data-cassandra? Is it possible?
- We are running on DSE 6.7. The newest 1.x driver (dse-java-driver-core Version 1.8.2) does seem to work in our tests. If spring-data-cassandra will not work with the 2.x driver are there significant enough differences between 1.8.2 and 2.1 to warrant abandoning spring-data-cassandra altogether?
Thanks!
