DataStax Enterprise accelerates cloud-native and bare-metal performance, supports more workload types from graph to search and analytics, and improves user productivity with Kubernetes and APIs.
Streamlined Development
Build apps seamlessly for distributed data sources and mixed models with DSE tools, drivers, Kafka and Docker integrations, and more.
Multi-Model, Mixed Workloads
Fully integrated with Graph, Search, and Analytics — Write data once and access using mixed workloads or access patterns.
Top Performance
Optimized for high throughput and low latency, with a fast bulk loader, advanced replication, and fast analytical queries.
Security End-to-End
Protect critical data, meet compliance requirements with unified authentication and access control, end-to-end encryption, data auditing.
DataStax HCD (Hyper-Converged Database)
Version
HCD represents the future of self-managed multi-model databases, built on Apache Cassandra® 4.0—the leading NoSQL database known for its unlimited scalability and exceptionally low latencies.

DataStax Bulk Loader
Package
Load
Load from JSON or CSV files to the database.
Unload
Unload data stored in the database to JSON or CSV files.
Count
Quickly count the number of rows in a given table.
DataStax Apache Kafka® Connector
Flexible
Flexible mapping to allow reads from many Kafka topics and writes to many DataStax tables, fits nicely to the common denormalization pattern used with Cassandra.
Performance
Created by the authors of the DataStax Drivers for Apache Cassandra and uses best practices for database writes, resulting in fast data movement.
Simple
You have to write zero lines of code if you use the connector to ingest from Kafka to a DataStax Enterprise or Cassandra database.
DataStax Apache Pulsar Connector
Package
The DataStax Apache Pulsar Connector automatically takes records from Pulsar topics and writes them to an Apache Cassandra™, DataStax Enterprise, or Astra database. The connector is deployed into an Apache Pulsar cluster and removes the need to build a custom solution to move data between these two systems.
Flexible
Flexible mapping to allow reads from many Pulsar topics and writes to many Cassandra tables, fits nicely to the common denormalization pattern used with Cassandra.
Performance
Created by DataStax to use best practices for database writes, resulting in fast data movement.
Simple
You have to write zero lines of code if you use the connector to ingest from Pulsar to a DataStax Luna Cassandra-as-a-Service, DataStax Enterprise or Apache OSS Cassandra database.
DataStax Change Agent for Apache Cassandra (CAC)
Package
Change Agent for Apache Cassandra® is a Java-based agent that runs locally with each Cassandra node, capturing changes by inspecting the commit log, and publishing them to an Apache Pulsar topic.
NoSQLBench
Package
NoSQLBench brings advanced testing capabilities into one tool that are not found in other testing tools. You can run common testing workloads directly from the command line. You can start doing this within 5 minutes of reading this. You can generate virtual data sets of arbitrary size, with deterministic data and statistically shaped values. You can design custom workloads that emulate your application, contained in a single file, based on statement templates — no IDE or coding required. You can immediately plot your results in a docker and grafana stack on Linux with a single command line option. When needed, you can open the access panels and rewire the runtime behavior of NoSQLBench to do advanced testing, including a full scripting environment with JavaScript.
DataStax Cassandra Source Connector for Apache Pulsar (CSC)
Package
The Apache Cassandra® Source Connector for Apache Pulsar™ (CSC) is a Pulsar IO source connector that processes changes from the Cassandra Change Agent, via a Pulsar topic, deduplicates them and makes sure they are current and then publishes them to another topic for consumers to access. CSC works with Apache Pulsar, including the DataStax Luna Streaming distribution of Apache Pulsar.
