Apache Cassandra和Datastax企业级被不同组织用于存储大量数据。在安装Apache Cassandra之前，您必须具备以下事项：

• 必须拥有datastax社区版本，可以点击这里下载Cassandra3.10。
• 必须提前安装好JDK8以上版本。
• 必须提前安装好JDK。
  最新版本的Java 8，要验证是否安装了正确版本的Java，请在终端上输入：

java -version

对于使用cqlsh， 需要安装Python 2.7(一定要使用这个版本哦)。要验证是否安装了正确版本的Python，请在终端上输入：

python --version

如下所示 -

C:\Users\Administrator>python --version
Python 2.7.10

C:\Users\Administrator>

从二进制tar文件安装

从Apache Cassandra下载网站下载最新的稳定版本。
将文件解压到某处，如在本示例为：D:\software\apache-cassandra-3.10，例如：

注：为了使用方便，可以将D:\software\apache-cassandra-3.10\bin添加到环境变量中。

进入目录D:\software\apache-cassandra-3.10\bin，通过从命令行调用 cassandra -f，在前台启动Cassandra。 按“Control + C”键停止Cassandra。 在后台通过从命令行调用cassandra启动Cassandra。 调用kill pid或pkill -f CassandraDaemon来停止Cassandra，其中pid是Cassandra进程标识，可以通过调用pgrep -f CassandraDaemon来找到它。

通过从命令行调用nodetool状态来验证Cassandra是否正在运行。

配置文件位于conf子目录中。
由于Cassandra，日志和数据目录分别位于日志和数据子目录中。 旧版本默认为/var/log/cassandra和/var/lib/cassandra。 因此，有必要以root权限启动Cassandra，或者将conf/cassandra.yaml更改为使用当前用户拥有的目录，如下文有关更改目录位置的部分所述。

现在我们来一步步地演示上面的命令，首先启动 cassandra ， 在前台启动Cassandra使用以下命令 -

D:\software\apache-cassandra-3.10\bin> cassandra -f
WARNING! Powershell script execution unavailable.
   Please use 'powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted'
   on this user-account to run cassandra with fully featured
   functionality on this platform.

这就启动了。。。
按“Control + C”键停止Cassandra。接下来演示在后台通过从命令行调用cassandra启动Cassandra。

如下图所示 -

要运行Cassandra shell，重新启动一个命令行窗口并输入cqlsh命令，您将看到命令行执行的结果以下：

D:\software\apache-cassandra-3.10\bin> cqlsh
