Hi Tibor, there is also this:
https://endoflife.date/apache-cassandra https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17788 Maybe you could integrate with this or make it even better? I think it offers some API to query it but I was not digging deep.

Hy Everyone, I was thinking about the information available on https://cassandra.apache.org/_/download.html about current and former releases, release dates, supported and unsupported versions of Apache Cassandra. These information are all available in a human readable format only, as far as I see. Imagine an organisation running a bunch of Cassandra clusters of different version, wanting to get an overview. Obviously, we have created a reporting of versions running and I’ve created some Grafana dashboards showing the number of nodes, clusters running various versions of Cassandra. Now, I’d like to extend that with a statistics on how many nodes are running versions that are up to date, have patches available or running end of life versions. This should be updated automatically if the state of the upstream project - Apache Cassandra - changes, due to new release. Rather than parsing the information from download.html, a source would be nice to have which makes these information available structured for machine processing. What I propose is something available at a fixed URL e.g. https://cassandra.apache.org/releases.json containing { "latest": [ "4.1.0", "4.0.7", "3.11.14", "3.0.28" ], "stable": { "version": "4.1.0", "release": "2022-12-13" }, "previous": { "version": "4.0.7", "release": "2022-10-23" }, "old": [ { "version": "3.11.14", "release": "2022-10-23" }, { "version": "3.0.28", "release": "2022-10-23" } ] } What do you think? ~Tibor
