HelenaORM is a simple ORM Mapping Tool for Apache Cassandra based on Hector It is work in progress :). final HelenaORMDAOFactory factory = HelenaORMDAOFactory.withConfig( "localhost", 9160, "Keyspace1", SerializeUnknownClasses.YES ); final PublicEvent exampleEvent = new PublicEvent(); exampleEvent.setName( "Session im Irish Rover" ); exampleEvent.setDescription( "Gute Irische Livemusik" ); exampleEvent.setId( UUID.randomUUID() ); exampleEvent.setUrl( URI.create( "http://www.thiesen.org" ) ); final HelenaDAO<PublicEvent> dao = factory.forClassAndColumnFamily( PublicEvent.class, "Standard1" ); dao.insert( exampleEvent ); System.out.println( "Stored as " + exampleEvent.getId() ); final PublicEvent publicEvent = dao.get( exampleEvent.getId().toString() ); System.out.println( publicEvent ); See org.thiesen.helenaorm.example.Main for more examples.
