Re: Cassandra book/tutorial
Thanks a lot to all for information.
I think so that all the current Cassandra are pretty old and outdated.

Re: Cassandra book/tutorial

Hey Erwin,
Another option for you to learn Apache Cassandra is via DataStax’s free online training (apologies for the DS plug here; it is free though and teaches you how to get up-and-running with open source Apache Cassandra + Java, with more languages to come next year).
It was just announced last week, starts on November 4th, and you can learn more/pre-register here: http://www.datastax.com/what-we-offer/products-services/training/virtual-training
Hope this helps. Best of luck.

RE: Cassandra book/tutorial
Posted by DE VITO Dominique <do...@thalesgroup.com>.
Hi Erwin,
Few books are coming out these months :
* Octobre : "Mastering Apache Cassandra" http://www.packtpub.com/mastering-apache-cassandra/book
* November : " Cassandra High Performance Cookbook: Second Edition" http://www.packtpub.com/cassandra-high-performance-cookbook/book
* December : "Practical Cassandra: A Developer's Approach" http://www.amazon.com/Practical-Cassandra-Developers-Addison-Wesley-Analytics/dp/032193394X/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1382953729&sr=1-5&keywords=cassandra
I expected them to be more up-to-date than the oldie "Cassandra: The Definitive Guide" by Eben Hewitt (Nov 29, 2010)
This being said, there is also quite a bunch of great content online !
Regards,
Dominique

Thanks a lot to all for information.
I think so that all the current Cassandra are pretty old and outdated.

Reading previous version's documentation and related information from that time in the past (like books) has value! It helps to understand decisions that were made and changed and some that are still the same.... like Secondary Indexes which were introduced in 0.7 when http://www.amazon.com/Cassandra-Definitive-Guide-Eben-Hewitt/dp/1449390412 came out back in 2011.
If you are really just getting started then I say go and start here http://www.planetcassandra.org/

With lot of enthusiasm i started reading it. Its out-dated, error prone. I could not even get Cassandra running from that book. Eventually i could not get start with cassandra.

Eben Hewitt's book is great, as are the other C* books like the High Performance Cookbook http://www.amazon.com/Cassandra-Performance-Cookbook-Edward-Capriolo/dp/1849515123
I would recommend reading both of those books. You can also read http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/thrift-to-cql3 to help understandings.
From there go with CQL http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql3/CQL.html
