Developed by Simba Corporation, the DataStax ODBC driver for Apache Cassandra is compliant with the latest ODBC 3.52 specification, runs on both 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows and Linux, and can be downloaded from their website. The driver enables integration with a broad array of tools for data processing, migration, analysis, and visualization by leveraging the power of both CQL and SQL. It serves as a simple integration point to access online data stored in Apache Cassandra, a massive, scale-out, always-on, distributed database built for cloud, mobile, and internet-of-things applications.
