@satishd I think the fluent API handles common use cases. Its purpose is to
ease the cassandra integration because creating a CQL statement from tuple is
cumbersome. In case of specifics needs developers can still implement their own
CQLStatementTupleMapper. So I think it will be bad to remove that API. In fact,
there is a risk that developers that will use the connector have to re-develop
a DSL.
I'm not sure, but I think there is not a lot changes into cassandra
connector API. DataStax seems to focus their developments onto the cassandra
internal system and not onto query language support.
