The Cassandra team is pleased to announce the release of the second beta for the future Apache Cassandra 2.0.0.
Let me first stress that this is still beta software and as such is *not* ready for production use. As with the first beta, the goal is to give a preview of what will become Cassandra 2.0 and to get wider testing before the final release. Please report any problem you may encounter[3,4] with this release and have a look at the change log[1] and release notes[2] to see where Cassandra 2.0 differs from the previous series. Apache Cassandra 2.0.0-beta2[5] is available as usual from the cassandra website (http://cassandra.apache.org/download/) and a debian package is available using the 20x branch (see http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/DebianPackaging). Thank you for your help in testing and have fun with it.
