Download
DataStax Astra DB uses application API tokens to connect applications to the Astra database using a variety of APIs. The Astra DB Plugin for HashiCorp Vault, adds robust token lifecycle management for these application tokens and ensures that token ownership and usage are well understood. The plugin gives you the ability to associate metadata with tokens -- such as the user who created each token, and what it is being used for -- and enables logging of token usage/access via HashiCorp Vault. Dynamic tokens which are leased for a limited period of time are also available with the Astra DB plugin for HashiCorp Vault. The Astra DB plugin thus enhances the overall security posture for Astra DB in conjunction with HashiCorp Vault.

Graph Loader

Version
Download
DSE Graph Loader is a customizable, highly tunable command line utility for loading graph datasets into DSE Graph from various input sources. It is built to load datasets containing hundreds of millions (10^8) of vertices and billions (10^9) of edges. DSE Graph Loader is efficient, using parallel loading and persistent cache to store vertices, provided a sufficient machine is used to run the program.

Multiple Sources Available

Data can be loaded from CSV files, JSON files, delimited text (CSV with a header line to identify the fields), text parsed by regular expressions, and binary Gryo files.

Preparation

Reads entire input data to check for graph schema conformity. Suggests graph schema updates, or if enabled, changes graph schema. Supplies statistics about how much data will be added to graph when loaded.

Vertex Loading

Adds or retrieves all of the vertices in the input data and caches them locally to speed up subsequent edge loading.

Edge and Property Loading

Adds all edges and properties from the input data to the graph.

DataStax Drivers

Version
Download
The DataStax Drivers are the client libraries for developers creating applications with Apache Cassandra™ or DataStax products. Reference the Application Developer Guide for general driver concepts and the individual driver documentation for API specifics of each language.

Synchronous and Asynchronous APIs

The drivers are built for high volumes of concurrent requests and offer both synchronous and asynchronous APIs. The Java driver also offers a reactive API.

Popular Programming Languages

DataStax supports C/C++, C#, Java, Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby and JDBC/ODBC drivers.

DataStax Enterprise Driver Users

All DSE driver functionality is now in the single DataStax Driver. See this blog post for details, the documentation for the DSE drivers remains available here.

ODBC/JDBC Drivers

Version
Download
To connect with individual databases, JDBC (the Java Database Connectivity API) requires drivers for each database. The JDBC driver gives out the connection to the database and implements the protocol for transferring the query and result between client and database.

Since the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is such a prolific framework to enable Business Intelligence (BI) tools, DataStax provides a set of ODBC drivers to enable these use cases. For reference on ODBC drivers check out this blog.

Community Drivers

Version
Download
The Community Drivers are client libraries for developers creating applications with Apache Cassandra™ or DataStax products. These drivers are not maintained or supported by DataStax.
