Hi everyone, I'd like to float an idea today: adding support for querying Cassandra data from Impala. Impala can already query and analyze data from sources like HBase and Kudu. I think we could add Cassandra as a new data source to further enrich Impala's query and analytics ecosystem.
As far as I know, if your data lives in Cassandra, the options available today are Presto for OLAP analysis [1], Trino for OLAP analysis [2], or Spark for offline/batch analysis [3]. I believe Impala should have an equivalent capability as well. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
