Description

A very rough stab at a Cassandra datacollection writer (attemped copy of the Hbase one) using the pelops adaptor. To use this, simply tar xvfz chukwa_cassandra.zip in the root of your cassandra install. Run ant and copy the collector and core war/jar files. You will also need to add 2 entries to your configuration for the keyspace and the hostname otherwise the default Keyspace 'Chukwa_Keyspace' and host 'localhost' will be used.

<property>
<name>cassandra.keyspace</name>
<value>Keyspace1</value>
<description>The name of the keyspace</description>
</property>

<property>
<name>cassandra.cluster.host</name>
<value>localhost</value>
<description>The hostname of the cluster to connect to </description>
</property>

Also, the following jars were used and place into the lib/ directory before running ant.

apache-cassandra-1.0.0.jar
apache-cassandra-thrift-1.0.0.jar
