# Debezium Connector for Apache Cassandra

Debezium is an open source project that provides a low latency data streaming platform for change data capture (CDC).

This repository contains incubating connector for Apache Cassandra which is in an **early stage of its development**.
You are encouraged to explore this connector and test it, but it is not recommended yet for production usage.

Please see the [README.md](https://github.com/debezium/debezium#building-debezium) in the main repository for general instructions on building Debezium from source (prerequisites, usage of Docker etc).

## Cassandra compatibility

The following table list supported version of Apache Cassandra:


| Connector version | Apache Cassandra  |
|--|---|
| 1.9+ | Compatible with 3.x and 4.x version  |
| Up to 1.8 | Compatible with only 3.x  |

## Building the Debezium Cassandra connector

Please follow the steps described in the main repository to build the connector: [building-debezium](https://github.com/debezium/debezium#building-debezium)
