+Our monthly roundup of key activities and knowledge to keep the community
informed.
+
+== Release Notes
+
+=== Released
+
+The release of Apache Cassandra 4.1 continues to draw closer, and the focus is
on the small number of tickets and test failures that block the beta release
and release candidate (rc) for 4.1. The consensus on the release approach is
"when a green run, go beta, when three green and no other tickets open, go GA."
+
+In the interim, we continue to release new versions of Cassandra, and the
latest is
https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/cassandra/4.0.6/apache-cassandra-4.0.6-bin.tar.gz[4.0.6^]
(https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0.6/apache-cassandra-4.0.6-bin.tar.gz.asc[pgp^],

+pay attention to the
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cassandra.git;a=blob_plain;f=NEWS.txt;hb=refs/tags/cassandra-4.0.6[Release
Notes^] and let us know if you encounter any problems.

and

and let us know if you encounter any problems.
+
+=== Important: Debian and Red Hat package repositories have now moved.
+For Debian, please, use
https://debian.cassandra.apache.org[https://debian.cassandra.apache.org^] and
for Red Hat it is
https://redhat.cassandra.apache.org/40x/[https://redhat.cassandra.apache.org/40x/^].
+
+*Note:* For this release cycle only, we will continue to support 3.0 as well
as the 3.11, 4.0, and 4.1 latest patch versions. See the
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/tQzjBw[Release Lifecycle wiki page^] for
more details.
+
+See the xref:download.adoc[download section^] for the latest stable and older
supported versions of source and binary distributions. Please make sure you
read the additional information on the Download page.
+
+To stay up-to-date, we recommend joining the
xref:community.adoc#discussions[Cassandra mailing lists].
+
+== Community Notes
+
+_Updates on Cassandra Enhancement Proposals (CEPs), how to contribute, and
other community activities._
+
+_For newcomers to the project, we have a useful
xref:development/index.adoc[‘Contributing to Cassandra’] page for how to get
involved and get started. We would also recommend reading the
xref:doc/latest/cassandra/architecture/overview.adoc[overview of the C*
architecture^]._
+
+_We use Jira to record project issues. Here’s a handy Jira tip from *Josh
McKenzie*: if you want to search for tickets in your area of interest, use this
https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20cassandra%20AND%20resolution%20!%3D%20unresolved%20AND%20assignee%20is%20EMPTY%20AND%20summary%20~%20%27ReplaceTextHere%27%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20ASC[URL
link^]. Simply swap out ‘ReplaceTextHere’ in the URL query string for what you
want to find._
+
+_If you’d like to help us get 4.1 over the line, check out the unassigned
tickets marked as
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2454&quickFilter=2160[beta
and rc blockers^]._
+
+_We also recommend viewing two Jira ticket queries we’ve created. One is a
curated list of
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2454&quickFilter=2160&quickFilter=2162[‘Low
Hanging Fruit’ tickets that are unassigned^] and the other is our
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2162&quickFilter=2160[‘Starter
Tickets’^] for 4.0.x and 4.1.x. Feel free to self-select a ticket to work on.
If you want to find a [...]
+
+_Any of the tickets on the curated lists should be of appropriate complexity
for someone new to the project to tackle. Just remember to assign yourself to
the ticket and acknowledge the status, such as ‘Work in Progress’ and ‘Needs
Comitter/Patch Available’ when you submit your patch. You can also reach out on
the https://the-asf.slack.com/[ASF Slack^] in the #cassandra-dev Slack channel.
We have 13 mentors ready to help, and you can contact them by using
@cassandra_mentors._
+
+_You can also read PMC member *Josh McKenzie’s*
https://lists.apache.org/thread/vpm42lrmwgqnpc1y854b7b305o280vr4[latest
bi-weekly update^] for ongoing discussions and the latest on ticket progress._
+
+=== Announced
+
+This is worth mentioning again—both the Debian and Red Hat repositories have
moved. The Debian `sources.list` and Red Hat `cassandra.repo` files must be
updated to point to the new repository URLs. You can find more information on
the xref:download.adoc[Download page^].

+
+*Aaron Ploetz*, host of the Apache Cassandra Corner podcast has been busy. In
https://open.spotify.com/episode/1cjiEragPsIIK44q4tnbJ5[Episode 7^] he spoke to
*Ekaterina Dimitrova*, Apache Cassandra Committer, about maintaining the
project's stability for Cassandra 4.0, considerations for supporting the Java
17 JDK, and tips on how to get started with contributing to the project. Just
as we write this blog,

+
+=== Announced
+
+We are pleased to announce that the Apache Cassandra project was selected for
AnitaB.org’s Grace Hopper Celebration, https://ghc.anitab.org/[Open Source
Day^], which took place on *16 September 2022*. The event is part of the
biggest female-led movement in open source and promotes diversity in the field.
The Open Source Day itself was a virtual all-day hackathon where attendees were
encouraged to contribute to a curated list of open source projects with the
help of experienced mentors. T [...]

+
+.Apache Cassandra was selected as an Open Source Project for the Open Source
Day section of the Grace Hopper Celebration organized by AnitaB.org.

+
+=== Announced
+
+The last in-person event was a Cassandra Day in Berlin on *Tuesday 20
September, 2022*. You can read more about this on the
xref:blog/Cassandra-Day-in-Berlin-Announced.adoc[Cassandra blog^]. Mick Semb
Wever took this face-to-face opportunity to talk about future plans with
community members that are able to attend. This event kickstarts a series of
Cassandra city-based events with Amsterdam and London coming up soon. Please
read the blog for announcements.

+
+=== Discussed
+
+*Claude Warren* has started a conversation about templates for pull requests.
Could they help to make pull requests better? You can catch up with the
discussion
https://lists.apache.org/thread/bwogjbpmwxd7qongq86lcv03ljqq83ps[here^]
+
+=== Discussed
+
+*Ekaterina Dimitrova* has resumed work on JDK17 support and she is looking for
anyone that wants to collaborate on
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16895[CASSANDRA-16895^]. As
JDK8 is aging, a new JDK is a critical step in deprecated older platforms.
+
+=== Discussed
+
+*Andres de la Pena* has opened up a discussion around a dynamic data masking
feature in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/jotrDQ[CEP-20^]. You can
follow the discussion
https://lists.apache.org/thread/qsmxsymozymy6dy9tp5xw9gn5fhz9nt4[here^]. This
feature is valuable to end users and a reflection of the growing maturity of
the project and how it is being used by more organizations with compliance
requirements.

+
+Ujjwal Gulecha, software engineer at DoorDash, discusses the scaling
challenges with their content discovery and achieving reliability in 2022.
DoorDash needed to showcase relevant content as banners and carousels on
high-traffic surfaces, such as the home page:

+[quote,'https://doordash.engineering/2022/06/28/taming-content-discovery-scaling-challenges-with-hexagons-and-elasticsearch/[Ujjwal
Gulecha^]']
+
+_"We were able to massively reduce our operational costs while still
maintaining high reliability and quality. In particular we were able to reduce
~50% costs for our Cassandra and Redis clusters and around 75% costs on our
Kubernetes application hosting costs."_
