Some background: I am part of a team which is working on a rather large internet program. It is currently using an RDBMS, but we want to start using Cassandra. I'm working in Eclipse.
I downloaded and unzipped hector-0.6.0-11.zip and got a whole bunch of jars, most of which don't look like Hector. Is it possible that this distribution includes what I need from Thrift? (That would be great!) Now I'm noticing that it has apache-cassandra-0.6.0.jar - should I delete this? 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 1,275,010 apache-cassandra-0.6.0.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 2,189 cassandra-javautils.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 24,360 clhm-production.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 58,160 commons-codec-1.4.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 96,203 commons-pool-1.5.3.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 639,592 google-collections-1.0.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 43,812 hector-0.6.0-11-sources.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 90,548 hector-0.6.0-11.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 255,915 high-scale-lib.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 188,158 libthrift-r917130.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 367,444 log4j-1.2.14.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 102,780 perf4j-0.9.12.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 23,445 slf4j-api-1.5.8.jar 04/21/2010 09:31 AM 9,679 slf4j-log4j12-1.5.8.jar On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 1:35 PM, Ran Tavory <ran...@gmail.com> wrote: > good link, thanks, can I get one done for hector as? :) > There are some wiki pages and blog posts in the above mentioned links so > they are a good start for hector, then there are some unit tests, but I > certainly would appreciate help from the community here. > > On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 1:25 PM, Swaroop Jayanthi <swaro...@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Hi Ran, >> >> I am sorry if i am wrong in any sense, and i am new to NOSQL DB but >> curious learn.
