Follow-up to the umbrella patch for CASSANDRA-21342 (merged 2026-05-14).
Closes the long-tail of trunk xref errors that remained after the first
wave landed.
Mechanical retargets only; no prose was rewritten and no pages were
added or removed. Anchors that did not exist are added with the
project's existing [[anchor]] convention.
Edit classes:
* Module-prefix xrefs: bare/partial paths -> cassandra:-qualified
* Moved-page xrefs: retarget to current home on trunk
* Filename typo: defintions.adoc -> definitions.adoc
* Extension: .html -> .adoc; writetime retargeted to functions.adoc
* nodetool xrefs: qualify to cassandra:managing/tools/nodetool/
* Anchors: add three missing [[anchor]] targets and retarget the
xrefs that point at them
For every still-existing anchor target the destination page and
[[anchor]] (or generated section id) were grep-verified on
upstream/trunk before the edit. Triage was driven by the 2026-04-21
Antora 3 baseline (Jenkins #2752); patterns where no source file on
trunk still references the old target were treated as already-closed
and not touched.
Build verification: cassandra-website built locally with Antora 3
against this branch as the cassandra source drops trunk-level errors
from 161 (baseline) to 3. The three remaining errors are all in
cassandra-website source (blog posts + main-nav.adoc) and out of
scope for this patch.
Drafting and triage were performed with AI assistance (Anthropic
Claude); the change set is reviewable as mechanical xref retargets
and anchor additions. Source provenance per ASF generative tooling
guidance.

Resolve broken cross-module xrefs and image/anchor targets across the
cassandra docs tree. Companion to apache/cassandra-website#319 (merged
2026-05-13) under the same JIRA umbrella.

Rust CQL did not have any commits in 9 years. It doesn't even support
protocol V4, and most of the features that a user could expect from the
driver - like load balancing or pagination. No reasonable app would use
it in production.
This commit replaces it with Scylla Rust Driver on the page with
recommended drivers. Scylla Rust Driver is actively developed and
feature-rich. Even though it is primarily developed for Scylla, we do
always make sure it is also compatible with Cassandra and tested with
it.
The original second sentence implied per-table scope, which contradicted
the first sentence. Replaced with explicit keyspace-scope wording and
removed the redundant vector/non-vector qualifier.

Remember that for set and list collections, you need to specify the element type inside the angle brackets (<>). For map, you need to specify both the key type and value type separated by a comma.
The SQL statement you provided for creating a table in Cassandra has a small syntax issue with the comment. In Cassandra, comments should be enclosed in single quotes (') and preceded by the keyword WITH. Additionally, the comment text should be properly formatted

We can disable saving of the history either via command-line parameter --disable-history, or by setting disabled = True in the history section of the cqlshrc. Both options will read existing history, and just won't save new commands.
Update help and docs for cqlsh history.
Add startup info logline whenr history logging is enabled.
Add a fix for cqlshrc file path not correctly expanding.
Includes the Backport of

This is unnecessary code as the current implementation of CEP-54 is not implemeting / exercising these features.

It is also possible to override them via nodetool if necessary.
This patch also fixes the computation of sampling ratio to not lose the precision.
