<meta name="description" content="The Apache Cassandra database is the right choice when you need scalability and high availability without compromising performance. Linear scalability and proven fault-tolerance on commodity hardware or cloud infrastructure make it the perfect platform for mission-critical data. Cassandra's support for replicating across multiple datacenters is best-in-class, providing lower latency for your users and the peace of mind of knowing that you can survive regional outages.

<h1>Installing Cassandra<a class="headerlink" href="#installing-cassandra" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>These are the instructions for deploying the supported releases of Apache Cassandra on Linux servers.</p>
<p>Cassandra runs on a wide array of Linux distributions including (but not limited to):</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Ubuntu, most notably LTS releases 16.04 to 18.04</li>
<li>CentOS &amp; RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) including 6.6 to 7.7</li>
<li>Amazon Linux AMIs including 2016.09 through to Linux 2</li>
<li>Debian versions 8 &amp; 9</li>
<li>SUSE Enterprise Linux 12</li>
</ul>
<p>This is not an exhaustive list of operating system platforms, nor is it prescriptive. However users will be
well-advised to conduct exhaustive tests of their own particularly for less-popular distributions of Linux.
Deploying on older versions is not recommended unless you have previous experience with the older distribution
in a production environment.</p>
<div class="section" id="prerequisites">
<h2>Prerequisites<a class="headerlink" href="#prerequisites" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Install the latest version of Java 8, either the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html">Oracle Java Standard Edition 8</a> or <a class="reference external" href="http://openjdk.java.net/">OpenJDK 8</a>. To
verify that you have the correct version of java installed, type <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">java</span> <span class="pre">-version</span></code>.</li>
<li><strong>NOTE</strong>: <em>Experimental</em> support for Java 11 was added in Cassandra 4.0 (<a class="reference external" href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9608">CASSANDRA-9608</a>).
Running Cassandra on Java 11 is <em>experimental</em>. Do so at your own risk. For more information, see
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/NEWS.txt">NEWS.txt</a>.</li>
<li>For using cqlsh, the latest version of <a class="reference external" href="https://www.python.org/downloads/">Python 2.7</a> or Python 3.6+. To verify that you have
the correct version of Python installed, type <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">python</span> <span class="pre">--version</span></code>.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="choosing-an-installation-method">
<h2>Choosing an installation method<a class="headerlink" href="#choosing-an-installation-method" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>For most users, installing the binary tarball is the simplest choice. The tarball unpacks all its contents
into a single location with binaries and configuration files located in their own subdirectories. The most
obvious attribute of the tarball installation is it does not require <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">root</span></code> permissions and can be
installed on any Linux distribution.</p>
<p>Packaged installations require <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">root</span></code> permissions. Install the RPM build on CentOS and RHEL-based
distributions if you want to install Cassandra using YUM. Install the Debian build on Ubuntu and other
Debian-based distributions if you want to install Cassandra using APT. Note that both the YUM and APT
methods required <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">root</span></code> permissions and will install the binaries and configuration files as the
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cassandra</span></code> OS user.</p>

<ol class="arabic simple" start="2">
<li>Download the binary tarball from one of the mirrors on the <a class="reference external" href="http://cassandra.apache.org/download/">Apache Cassandra Download</a>

<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$ curl -OL http://apache.mirror.digitalpacific.com.au/cassandra/4.0.0/apache-cassandra-4.0.0-bin.tar.gz

<p>NOTE: The mirrors only host the latest versions of each major supported release. To download an earlier
version of Cassandra, visit the <a class="reference external" href="http://archive.apache.org/dist/cassandra/">Apache Archives</a>.</p>
<ol class="arabic simple" start="3">
<li>OPTIONAL: Verify the integrity of the downloaded tarball using one of the methods <a class="reference external" href="https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi#verify">here</a>.
For example, to verify the hash of the downloaded file using GPG:</li>
