The Apache Cassandra Project develops a highly scalable second-generation distributed database, bringing together Dynamo's fully distributed design and Bigtable's ColumnFamily-based data model.

There is a newer version: 2.1.07

/**
 * The ColumnFamilyOutputFormat acts as a Hadoop-specific
 * OutputFormat that allows reduce tasks to store keys (and corresponding
 * values) as Cassandra rows (and respective columns) in a given
 * ColumnFamily.
 *
 * 
 * As is the case with the {@link ColumnFamilyInputFormat}, you need to set the
 * Keyspace and ColumnFamily in your
 * Hadoop job Configuration. The {@link ConfigHelper} class, through its
 * {@link ConfigHelper#setOutputColumnFamily} method, is provided to make this
 * simple.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * For the sake of performance, this class employs a lazy write-back caching
 * mechanism, where its record writer batches mutations created based on the
 * reduce's inputs (in a task-specific map), and periodically makes the changes
 * official by sending a batch mutate request to Cassandra.
 *
