> We had users in the past asking for a Flink+Cassandra integration.
> It seems that there is a well-developed java client for connecting into Cassandra: https://github.com/datastax/java-driver (ASL 2.0)
> There are also tutorials out there on how to start a local cassandra instance (for the tests): http://prettyprint.me/prettyprint.me/2010/02/14/running-cassandra-as-an-embedded-service/index.html
> For the data types, I think we should support TupleX types, and map standard java types to the respective cassandra types.
> In addition, it seems that there is a object mapper from datastax to store POJOs in Cassandra (there are annotations for defining the primary key and types)
