The ScyllaDB team is pleased to announce ScyllaDB CPP Rust Driver 0.2.0, an API-compatible rewrite of GitHub - scylladb/cpp-driver: Scylla C/C++ Driver as a wrapper for the Rust driver. It will fully replace the CPP driver, which is already reaching its End of Life.
The current driver version should be considered Alpha.

Some minor features still need to be included. See Limitations section in README.md.

The underlying Rust driver used version: 0.14.0.

CI / developer tool improvements:

  • Extended cmake file, so now it can build packages next to the regular builds. (#129)
