Peter, I agree with you, but sometimes choice can be very easy, if a tool offers real advantages ...
During several weeks, I have thought that choice could be : low level (thrift) or high level (pandra) as described on Cassandra Wiki.. Today, I discovered that SimpleCassie exists ... (I especially noticed that load balancing is planned). So I wonder if there is another client, well known and supported by community. As said by Jonathan, SimpleCassie and Pandra are both based on Thrift.. I think a Cassandra upgrade will require an upgrade of Thrift classes of high level clients too.
