It's probably a source of some confusion that in the JEE world, the driver isn't pooled, but the data source is. Since the Java Driver for Cassandra includes the pooling, there's no need for a JEE data source on top of it. This also means that the Java Driver for Cassandra isn't a one-for-one exchange with a JDBC driver. I'm not sure if this same level of confusion occurs with other language drivers for Cassandra.
BTW, as Alex suggested earlier in the thread, this discussion should probably be moved to the Java Driver mailing list.
