Cassaforte, a Clojure Cassandra Client

Cassaforte is a small, easy to use Clojure client for Apache Cassandra (2.0+) built around CQL 3.

For quickstart, please refer to our Getting Started with Clojure and Cassandra guide.

Project Goals

• Provide a Clojure-friendly, easy to use API that reflects Cassandra's data model well. Dealing with the Cassandra Thrift API quirks is counterproductive.
• Be well maintained.
• Be well documented.
• Be well tested.
• Target modern Cassandra and Clojure releases.
• Integrate with libraries like Joda Time.
• Support URI connections to be friendly to Heroku and other PaaS providers.

Project Maturity

Cassaforte is a moderately mature project. Started in June 2012, it has reached 1.0 in July 2013 and 2.0 in December 2014. It is known to be used by dozens of companies, small and large.

Cassaforte is based on the official DataStax Java driver for Cassandra as well as Hayt, a battle tested CQL generation DSL library.
