Build

Project Status: Alpha

The Cassandra Operator manages Cassandra clusters deployed to Kubernetes and automates tasks related to operating a Cassandra cluster.

Currently user-facing, Cassandra cluster objects are created as Kubernetes Custom Resources.

Cassandra Version Support

We are currently building images for Cassandra 3.11.9 and 4.0-beta4.

Requirements

• Kubernetes 1.15+
• Helm 3 (if you want to use the included helm charts)

Limitations

• This operator is currently a work in progress, and breaking changes are landing in master all the time. Here be dragons!
• We expect to consider the Cassandra Operator stable soon; backwards incompatible changes will not be made once the project reaches stability.
• Some planned features have yet to be completed, and API changes are still possible—meaning that bug fixes, API, and version changes may not be backwards compatible.
• Please see the Instaclustr supported projects page for the enterprise support status of the Cassandra Operator.
