The most recent version of cassandra installed via datastax's repo on AWS CentOS is Cassandra 3.9

However, looking at the compatibility page, there does not appear to be a version of Priam compatible with Cassandra 3.9.

What are the suggested versions of Cassandra/Priam to install in this case?

Thanks in advance.

@amr46 3.x branch of Priam should be reasonably compatible with C* 3.9. That being said, I cannot say it will work for sure as I have not tested personally. But that is where I would put my money.

Also, current branch of 3.11 may work but I plan to upgrade the dependency org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all:2.1.17 to org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all:3.11 which may break 3.9 in future(depending what has changed) if you use that branch.

Note that in Netflix, we are moving to Apache Cassandra 3.11 as we found that to be more stable.

Thanks for the info.
Would you say then that Priam 3.11 will play well with Cassandra 3.11, or is that still to be thoroughly vetted?

Also, what's the most recent and stable priam/cassandra version combo that you suggest using?
Thanks in advance @arunagrawal84 .

@amr46 Yes, 3.11 should play well with 3.11 Apache Cassandra. We are currently running Apache C* and Priam 3.11 in the TEST environment. We have not found any issues yet with that combination.

  • Note we have not yet tested with 3.11.1 (which released today 10/10/2017)

I'll go with 3.11 in both cases then. Thanks!
