[cassam read]

Hi guys
I have tried cassandra 0.6.4 with replication factor 3 on 4 VM node .
everything (column,super-column,
replication,failover) i tried was successful from cli.
But I am stucked with thrift client. How to access cassandra thrift.
Do i have to compile thrift pkg for perl or I can directly used Net-Cassandra

I have search all available link /tutorial /post .
Please help me out to access cassandra from perl.
