Connection pool having warm-up and size-control capabilities Endpoint Manager: manages all the entry-point nodes to a cluster and will automatically distribute the connections against all the cluster endpoints defined besides checking for healthiness of the nodes (defensive node health check strategy). Handling more than one cluster in application Managed (add, modify, remove) Keyspaces and ColumnFamily objects (since version 0.7.X) Monitors features out-of-the-box and all connections to Cassandra by the Performance Monitor (native with Windows) by implementing PerformanceCounterHelper fwk. Prior Keyspace and ColumnFamily existence validation against a cluster information (taken out since version 0.7.X) Simple and user-friendly configuration section to configure all clusters Validation of command parameters: Input Parameter Completeness: It is no more necessary to go against a cluster to detect that parameters are missing.
