Hello Cassandra Users,
I've recently created a Cassandra Agent as part of Netflix's Cloud Prize
competition, the submission which I've named Hector is largely based on
Netflix's Priam. I would be very interested in getting feedback, from anyone
willing to give Hector (https://github.com/seanmccully/hector) a try. I am
very interested in seeing if this is something the Cassandra Community is
interested in using with their Cassandra installs.
For one, there's a name conflict with the well known Hector Cassandra
client project:
http://hector-client.github.io/hector/build/html/index.html
The project
If you've taken a look at it, and tried running it. Does it seem like a useful
tool? Was the documentation easy enough to follow, was the install and
configuration process straightforward? What can be done to improve upon it.
If I came to the github page, it wouldn't be immediately obvious what
the project is for.
If there isn't a lot of interest in using it, or you think its utter crap I
would probably still like to hear why.
So it provides a REST API to managing a Cassandra instance?
It looks interesting.
Have you looked at leveraging ccm's work [1]? ccm is a Python tool
meant to manage Cassanadra instances for dev testing, but I would
imagine the could work well together. It has a CCM Lib that one can import.
