Hi,

I know that triggers are still experimental but I want to know if they are
prod ready? If not when will it be.

I would call it "beta" in the google sense of the word "beta".

This does not parse for me. "Experimental" explicitly means you should not
rely on it, while many google services are in "Beta" forever, long after it
is ok to rely on them.

If you choose to use a Cassandra feature marked "experimental" in a
production environment, you are doing something very, very foolish.

I would use them if I really needed them and had done comprehensive testing with real life usage patterns to ensure nothing unexpected happens.

I would call it "beta" in the google sense of the word "beta".

No. Not prod ready is most of what "experimental" means.
