Just a heads-up, but there have been issues (at least one) reported when upgrading a multi-DC cluster from 3.x to 4.x when the cluster uses node-to-node SSL/TLS encryption. This is largely attributed to the fact that the secure port in 4.x changes to 9142, whereas in 3.x it continues to run on

Hi, as we are currently facing the same challenge (upgrading an existing cluster from C* 3 to C* 4), I wanted to share our strategy with you. It largely is what Scott already suggested, but I have some extra details, so I thought it might still be useful. We duplicated our cluster using the

Upgrade from C* 3 to C* 4 per datacenter

Hello Cassandra community, We are trying to upgrade our systems from Cassandra 3 to Cassandra 4. We plan to do this per data center. During the upgrade, a cluster with mixed SW levels is expected. At this point is it possible to perform topology changes? In case of an upgrade failure, would it
