What's New

As of Cassandra 1.0.9, the install now includes the Portfolio Manager sample application. Added new platform support (Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Server, both 32- and 64-bit) for Cassandra development. The Windows MSI installer provides a full install, including OpsCenter, sets all the WIN services, creates a Windows program group, and quickly starts the new version of DataStax OpsCenter (2.0).
