<h2 class="hdr">Cassandra Server</h2>
Cassandra releases include the core server, the <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/NodeTool">nodetool</a> administration command-line interface, and a development shell (<a href="http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql/CQL.html"><tt>cqlsh</tt></a> and the old <tt>cassandra-cli</tt>).
<p>
The latest stable release of Apache Cassandra is 1.2.9
(released on 2013-08-30). <i>If you're just
starting out, download this one.</i>
</p>
Apache provides binary tarballs and Debian packages:
<ul>

</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="hdr">Third Party Distributions</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.datastax.com/products/community">DataStax Community</a> is available in Linux rpm, deb, and tar packages, a Windows MSI installer, and a Mac OS X binary.
</ul>
<h2 class="hdr">CQL Drivers</h3>
<p>
Starting with version 0.8, Cassandra supports
<a href="http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql/CQL.html">CQL</a>
(Cassandra Query Language), an SQL-alike alternative to
the traditional
<a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/ClientOptions">RPC interface</a>.
Drivers are available for a variety of languages and can
be downloaded from their respective
<a href="http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/hosting/search?q=label:cql">
Apache Extras hosted pages</a>.
</p>
<p>The next major version of the Cassandra Query Language,
<a href="http://cassandra.apache.org/doc/cql3/CQL.html">CQL3</a>, is scheduled
for release in Cassandra 1.2, but an evaluation version of CQL3 is optionally
available in Cassandra 1.1 (use <tt>cqlsh -3</tt> to access it).
</p>
<p>
New users to Cassandra should be sure to check out the
<a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted">Getting Started</a>
guide.
