Madhavan commented on CALCITE-4768:
-----------------------------------

[~julianhyde], the existing `3.6.0` version that is used by this project is 
also developed and donated by DataStax to the Apache Cassandra community. See 
[https://github.com/datastax/java-driver/tree/3.6.0] for references. The 4.x is 
also part of the same driver series only. IIUC, Java Driver support JDK8 and 
higher.

> Upgrade Cassandra driver to latest 4.x

>             Project: Calcite
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: cassandra-adapter
>    Affects Versions: 1.27.0

> The Cassandra driver in Calcite uses the very old & outdated [3.6.0 
> driver|https://github.com/apache/calcite/blob/calcite-1.27.0/gradle.properties#L82].
>  The latest driver at the time of this writing is 
> [4.13.0|https://docs.datastax.com/en/developer/java-driver/4.13/changelog/#changelog],
>  also checkout the [upgrade guide from 3.x to 
> 4.x|https://docs.datastax.com/en/developer/java-driver/4.11/upgrade_guide/].
> Upgrading the driver will enable Calcite [& other projects that uses Calcite 
> like Drill, etc.,] users to interact with any Cassandra cluster of version 
> 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 4.x or even the [DBaaS versions using Secure Connect Bundle 
> (SCB)|https://docs.datastax.com/en/astra/docs/connecting-to-your-database-with-the-datastax-java-driver.html]
>  and leverage the fixes, feature and improvements done all only in the 
> Unified Drivers moving forward.
