+## 1. Cassandra CQL Interpreter for Apache Zeppelin
+
+<br/>
+<table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Name</th>
+ <th>Class</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>%cassandra</td>
+ <td>CassandraInterpreter</td>
+ <td>Provides interpreter for Apache Cassandra CQL query language</td>
+ </tr>
+</table>
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 2. Enabling Cassandra Interpreter
+
+ In a notebook, to enable the **Cassandra** interpreter, click on the **Gear** icon and select **Cassandra**
+
+ <center>
+ 
+
+ 
+ </center>
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 3. Using the Cassandra Interpreter
+
+ In a paragraph, use **_%cassandra_** to select the **Cassandra** interpreter and then input all commands.
+
+ To access the interactive help, type **HELP;**
+
+ <center>
+ 
+ </center>
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 4. Interpreter Commands
+
+ The **Cassandra** interpreter accepts the following commands
+
+<center>
+ <table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Command Type</th>
+ <th>Command Name</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Help command</td>
+ <td>HELP</td>
+ <td>Display the interactive help menu</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Schema commands</td>
+ <td>DESCRIBE KEYSPACE, DESCRIBE CLUSTER, DESCRIBE TABLES ...</td>
+ <td>Custom commands to describe the Cassandra schema</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Option commands</td>
+ <td>@consistency, @retryPolicy, @fetchSize ...</td>
+ <td>Inject runtime options to all statements in the paragraph</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Prepared statement commands</td>
+ <td>@prepare, @bind, @remove_prepared</td>
+ <td>Let you register a prepared command and re-use it later by injecting bound values</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Native CQL statements</td>
+ <td>All CQL-compatible statements (SELECT, INSERT, CREATE ...)</td>
+ <td>All CQL statements are executed directly against the Cassandra server</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+</center>
+
+<hr/>
+## 5. CQL statements
+
+This interpreter is compatible with any CQL statement supported by Cassandra. Ex:
+
+```sql
+
+ INSERT INTO users(login,name) VALUES('jdoe','John DOE');
+ SELECT * FROM users WHERE login='jdoe';
+```
+
+Each statement should be separated by a semi-colon ( **;** ) except the special commands below:
+
+1. @prepare
+2. @bind
+3. @remove_prepare
+4. @consistency
+5. @serialConsistency
+6. @timestamp
+7. @retryPolicy
+8. @fetchSize
+
+Multi-line statements as well as multiple statements on the same line are also supported as long as they are
+separated by a semi-colon. Ex:
+
+```sql
+
+ USE spark_demo;
+
+ SELECT * FROM albums_by_country LIMIT 1; SELECT * FROM countries LIMIT 1;
+
+ SELECT *
+ FROM artists
+ WHERE login='jlennon';
+```
+
+Batch statements are supported and can span multiple lines, as well as DDL(CREATE/ALTER/DROP) statements:
+
+```sql
+
+ BEGIN BATCH
+ INSERT INTO users(login,name) VALUES('jdoe','John DOE');
+ INSERT INTO users_preferences(login,account_type) VALUES('jdoe','BASIC');
+ APPLY BATCH;
+
+ CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test(
+ key int PRIMARY KEY,
+ value text
+ );
+```
+
+CQL statements are <strong>case-insensitive</strong> (except for column names and values).
+This means that the following statements are equivalent and valid:
+
+```sql
+
+ INSERT INTO users(login,name) VALUES('jdoe','John DOE');
+ Insert into users(login,name) vAlues('hsue','Helen SUE');
+```
+
+The complete list of all CQL statements and versions can be found below:
+<center>
+ <table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Cassandra Version</th>
+ <th>Documentation Link</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>2.2</strong></td>
+ <td>
+ <a target="_blank"
+ href="http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.3/cql/cqlIntro.html">
+ http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.3/cql/cqlIntro.html
+ </a>
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>2.1 & 2.0</strong></td>
+ <td>
+ <a target="_blank"
+ href="http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.1/cql/cql_intro_c.html">
+ http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.1/cql/cql_intro_c.html
+ </a>
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>1.2</strong></td>
+ <td>
+ <a target="_blank"
+ href="http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.0/cql/aboutCQL.html">
+ http://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.0/cql/aboutCQL.html
+ </a>
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+</center>
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 6. Comments in statements
+
+It is possible to add comments between statements. Single line comments start with the hash sign (#). Multi-line comments are enclosed between /** and **/. Ex:
+
+```sql
+
+ #First comment
+ INSERT INTO users(login,name) VALUES('jdoe','John DOE');
+
+ /**
+ Multi line
+ comments
+ **/
+ Insert into users(login,name) vAlues('hsue','Helen SUE');
+```
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 7. Syntax Validation
+
+The interpreters is shipped with a built-in syntax validator. This validator only checks for basic syntax errors.
+All CQL-related syntax validation is delegated directly to **Cassandra**
+
+Most of the time, syntax errors are due to **missing semi-colons** between statements or **typo errors**.
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 8. Schema commands
+
+To make schema discovery easier and more interactive, the following commands are supported:
+<center>
+ <table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Command</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>DESCRIBE CLUSTER;</strong></td>
+ <td>Show the current cluster name and its partitioner</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>DESCRIBE KEYSPACES;</strong></td>
+ <td>List all existing keyspaces in the cluster and their configuration (replication factor, durable write ...)</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>DESCRIBE TABLES;</strong></td>
+ <td>List all existing keyspaces in the cluster and for each, all the tables name</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><strong>DESCRIBE TYPES;</strong></td>
+ <td>List all existing user defined types in the <strong>current (logged) keyspace</strong></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE FUNCTIONS <keyspace_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>List all existing user defined functions in the given keyspace</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE AGGREGATES <keyspace_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>List all existing user defined aggregates in the given keyspace</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE KEYSPACE <keyspace_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>Describe the given keyspace configuration and all its table details (name, columns, ...)</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE TABLE (<keyspace_name>).<table_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>
+ Describe the given table. If the keyspace is not provided, the current logged in keyspace is used.
+ If there is no logged in keyspace, the default system keyspace is used.
+ If no table is found, an error message is raised
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE TYPE (<keyspace_name>).<type_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>
+ Describe the given type(UDT). If the keyspace is not provided, the current logged in keyspace is used.
+ If there is no logged in keyspace, the default system keyspace is used.
+ If no type is found, an error message is raised
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE FUNCTION (<keyspace_name>).<function_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>Describe the given user defined function. The keyspace is optional</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap><strong>DESCRIBE AGGREGATE (<keyspace_name>).<aggregate_name>;</strong></td>
+ <td>Describe the given user defined aggregate. The keyspace is optional</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+</center>
+
+The schema objects (cluster, keyspace, table, type, function and aggregate) are displayed in a tabular format.
+There is a drop-down menu on the top left corner to expand objects details. On the top right menu is shown the Icon legend.
+
+<br/>
+<center>
+ 
+</center>
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 9. Runtime Parameters
+
+Sometimes you want to be able to pass runtime query parameters to your statements.
+Those parameters are not part of the CQL specs and are specific to the interpreter.
+Below is the list of all parameters:
+
+<br/>
+<center>
+ <table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Parameter</th>
+ <th>Syntax</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Consistency Level</td>
+ <td><strong>@consistency=<em>value</em></strong></td>
+ <td>Apply the given consistency level to all queries in the paragraph</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Serial Consistency Level</td>
+ <td><strong>@serialConsistency=<em>value</em></strong></td>
+ <td>Apply the given serial consistency level to all queries in the paragraph</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Timestamp</td>
+ <td><strong>@timestamp=<em>long value</em></strong></td>
+ <td>
+ Apply the given timestamp to all queries in the paragraph.
+ Please note that timestamp value passed directly in CQL statement will override this value
+ </td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Retry Policy</td>
+ <td><strong>@retryPolicy=<em>value</em></strong></td>
+ <td>Apply the given retry policy to all queries in the paragraph</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Fetch Size</td>
+ <td><strong>@fetchSize=<em>integer value</em></strong></td>
+ <td>Apply the given fetch size to all queries in the paragraph</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+</center>
+
+ Some parameters only accept restricted values:
+
+<br/>
+<center>
+ <table class="table-configuration">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Parameter</th>
+ <th>Possible Values</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Consistency Level</td>
+ <td><strong>ALL, ANY, ONE, TWO, THREE, QUORUM, LOCAL_ONE, LOCAL_QUORUM, EACH_QUORUM</strong></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Serial Consistency Level</td>
+ <td><strong>SERIAL, LOCAL_SERIAL</strong></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Timestamp</td>
+ <td>Any long value</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Retry Policy</td>
+ <td><strong>DEFAULT, DOWNGRADING_CONSISTENCY, FALLTHROUGH, LOGGING_DEFAULT, LOGGING_DOWNGRADING, LOGGING_FALLTHROUGH</strong></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td nowrap>Fetch Size</td>
+ <td>Any integer value</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+</center>
+
+>Please note that you should **not** add semi-colon ( **;** ) at the end of each parameter statement
+
+Some examples:
+
+```sql
+
+ CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS spark_demo.ts(
+ key int PRIMARY KEY,
+ value text
+ );
+ TRUNCATE spark_demo.ts;
+
+ # Timestamp in the past
+ @timestamp=10
+
+ # Force timestamp directly in the first insert
+ INSERT INTO spark_demo.ts(key,value) VALUES(1,'first insert') USING TIMESTAMP 100;
+
+ # Select some data to make the clock turn
+ SELECT * FROM spark_demo.albums LIMIT 100;
+
+ # Now insert using the timestamp parameter set at the beginning(10)
+ INSERT INTO spark_demo.ts(key,value) VALUES(1,'second insert');
+
+ # Check for the result. You should see 'first insert'
+ SELECT value FROM spark_demo.ts WHERE key=1;
+```
+
+Some remarks about query parameters:
+
+> 1. **many** query parameters can be set in the same paragraph
+> 2. if the **same** query parameter is set many time with different values, the interpreter only take into account the first value
+> 3. each query parameter applies to **all CQL statements** in the same paragraph, unless you override the option using plain CQL text (like forcing timestamp with the USING clause)
+> 4. the order of each query parameter with regard to CQL statement does not matter
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 10. Support for Prepared Statements
+
+For performance reason, it is better to prepare statements before-hand and reuse them later by providing bound values.
+This interpreter provides 3 commands to handle prepared and bound statements:
+
+1. **@prepare**
+2. **@bind**
+3. **@remove_prepared**
+
+Example:
+
+```
+
+ @prepare[statement_name]=...
+
+ @bind[statement_name]=’text’, 1223, ’2015-07-30 12:00:01’, null, true, [‘list_item1’, ’list_item2’]
+
+ @bind[statement_name_with_no_bound_value]
+
+ @remove_prepare[statement_name]
+```
+
+<br/>
+#### a. @prepare
+<br/>
+You can use the syntax _"@prepare[statement_name]=SELECT ..."_ to create a prepared statement.
+The _statement_name_ is **mandatory** because the interpreter prepares the given statement with the Java driver and
+saves the generated prepared statement in an **internal hash map**, using the provided _statement_name_ as search key.
+
+> Please note that this internal prepared statement map is shared with **all notebooks** and **all paragraphs** because
+there is only one instance of the interpreter for Cassandra
+
+> If the interpreter encounters **many** @prepare for the **same _statement_name_ (key)**, only the **first** statement will be taken into account.
+
+Example:
+
+```
+
+ @prepare[select]=SELECT * FROM spark_demo.albums LIMIT ?
+
+ @prepare[select]=SELECT * FROM spark_demo.artists LIMIT ?
+```
+
+For the above example, the prepared statement is _SELECT * FROM spark_demo.albums LIMIT ?_.
+_SELECT * FROM spark_demo.artists LIMIT ?_ is ignored because an entry already exists in the prepared statements map with the key select.
+
+In the context of **Zeppelin**, a notebook can be scheduled to be executed at regular interval,
+thus it is necessary to **avoid re-preparing many time the same statement (considered an anti-pattern)**.
+<br/>
+<br/>
+#### b. @bind
+<br/>
+Once the statement is prepared (possibly in a separated notebook/paragraph). You can bind values to it:
+
+```
+ @bind[select_first]=10
+```
+
+Bound values are not mandatory for the **@bind** statement. However if you provide bound values, they need to comply to some syntax:
+
+* String values should be enclosed between simple quotes ( ‘ )
+* Date values should be enclosed between simple quotes ( ‘ ) and respect the formats:
+ 1. yyyy-MM-dd HH:MM:ss
+ 2. yyyy-MM-dd HH:MM:ss.SSS
+* **null** is parsed as-is
+* **boolean** (true|false) are parsed as-is
+* collection values must follow the **[standard CQL syntax]**:
+ * list: [‘list_item1’, ’list_item2’, ...]
+ * set: {‘set_item1’, ‘set_item2’, …}
+ * map: {‘key1’: ‘val1’, ‘key2’: ‘val2’, …}
+* **tuple** values should be enclosed between parenthesis (see **[Tuple CQL syntax]**): (‘text’, 123, true)
+* **udt** values should be enclosed between brackets (see **[UDT CQL syntax]**): {stree_name: ‘Beverly Hills’, number: 104, zip_code: 90020, state: ‘California’, …}
+
+> It is possible to use the @bind statement inside a batch:
+>
+> ```sql
+>
+> BEGIN BATCH
+> @bind[insert_user]='jdoe','John DOE'
+> UPDATE users SET age = 27 WHERE login='hsue';
+> APPLY BATCH;
+> ```
+
+<br/>
+#### c. @remove_prepare
+<br/>
+To avoid for a prepared statement to stay forever in the prepared statement map, you can use the
+**@remove_prepare[statement_name]** syntax to remove it.
+Removing a non-existing prepared statement yields no error.
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 11. Using Dynamic Forms
+
+Instead of hard-coding your CQL queries, it is possible to use the mustache syntax ( **\{\{ \}\}** ) to inject simple value or multiple choices forms.
+
+The syntax for simple parameter is: **\{\{input_Label=default value\}\}**. The default value is mandatory because the first time the paragraph is executed,
+we launch the CQL query before rendering the form so at least one value should be provided.
+
+The syntax for multiple choices parameter is: **\{\{input_Label=value1 | value2 | … | valueN \}\}**. By default the first choice is used for CQL query
+the first time the paragraph is executed.
+
+Example:
+
+{% raw %}
+ #Secondary index on performer style
+ SELECT name, country, performer
+ FROM spark_demo.performers
+ WHERE name='{{performer=Sheryl Crow|Doof|Fanfarlo|Los Paranoia}}'
+ AND styles CONTAINS '{{style=Rock}}';
+{% endraw %}
+
+
+In the above example, the first CQL query will be executed for _performer='Sheryl Crow' AND style='Rock'_.
+For subsequent queries, you can change the value directly using the form.
+
+> Please note that we enclosed the **\{\{ \}\}** block between simple quotes ( **'** ) because Cassandra expects a String here.
+> We could have also use the **\{\{style='Rock'\}\}** syntax but this time, the value displayed on the form is **_'Rock'_** and not **_Rock_**.
+
+It is also possible to use dynamic forms for **prepared statements**:
+
+{% raw %}
+
+ @bind[select]=='{{performer=Sheryl Crow|Doof|Fanfarlo|Los Paranoia}}', '{{style=Rock}}'
+
+{% endraw %}
+
+<hr/>
+
+## 12. Execution parallelism and shared states
+
+It is possible to execute many paragraphs in parallel. However, at the back-end side, we’re still using synchronous queries.
+_Asynchronous execution_ is only possible when it is possible to return a `Future` value in the `InterpreterResult`.
+It may be an interesting proposal for the **Zeppelin** project.
+
+Another caveat is that the same `com.datastax.driver.core.Session` object is used for **all** notebooks and paragraphs.
+Consequently, if you use the **USE _keyspace name_;** statement to log into a keyspace, it will change the keyspace for
+**all current users** of the **Cassandra** interpreter because we only create 1 `com.datastax.driver.core.Session` object
+per instance of **Cassandra** interpreter.
+
+The same remark does apply to the **prepared statement hash map**, it is shared by **all users** using the same instance of **Cassandra** interpreter.
+
+Until **Zeppelin** offers a real multi-users separation, there is a work-around to segregate user environment and states:
+_create different **Cassandra** interpreter instances_
+
+For this, first go to the **Interpreter** menu and click on the **Create** button
+<br/>
+<br/>
+<center>
+ 
+</center>
+
+In the interpreter creation form, put **cass-instance2** as **Name** and select the **cassandra**
+in the interpreter drop-down list
+<br/>
+<br/>
+<center>
+ 
+</center>
+
+ Click on **Save** to create the new interpreter instance. Now you should be able to see it in the interpreter list.
+
+<br/>
+<br/>
+<center>
+ 
+</center>
+
+Go back to your notebook and click on the **Gear** icon to configure interpreter bindings.
+You should be able to see and select the **cass-instance2** interpreter instance in the available
+interpreter list instead of the standard **cassandra** instance.

+## 13. Interpreter Configuration
+
+To configure the **Cassandra** interpreter, go to the **Interpreter** menu and scroll down to change the parameters.
+The **Cassandra** interpreter is using the official **[Cassandra Java Driver]** and most of the parameters are used
+to configure the Java driver
+
+Below are the configuration parameters and their default value.
