CASSANDRA INSTALLATION USING
TARBALL BINARY FILE
▪️ We have 3 methods of installing Cassandra. In that this one is the one of the methods.
▪️ This will be installing in the Linux terminal only.
▪️ Follow the steps accordingly to install Apache Cassandra in Linux operating systems.
Tarball:
▪️ It is a set of files packaged together into a single file, then compressed using the gzip compression program.
Why tarball:
▪️ The tarball unpacks all its contents into a single location with binaries and configuration files located in their own subdirectories.
STEP-1: Installing Java
▪️ First of all, make sure that you have installed java in your system. Because Apache Cassandra requires Java to run.
▪️ Type $ java -version in cmd to check the version of java installed in your system otherwise try to install the java.
STEP-2: Installation of Tarball file.
▪️ First of all, install the latest version of Cassandra from the Apache Cassandra Tarball official site.

▪️ Or install using mirrors of the Apache Cassandra
$ curl -OL http://apache.mirror.digitalpacific.com.au/cassandra/4.0.0/apache-cassandra-4.0.0-bin.tar.gz
STEP-3: Checking Integrity
▪️ Now verify the integrity of the downloaded tarbal file using any method we used gpg here.
|
1 |
$ gpg --print-md SHA256 apache-cassandra-4.0.0-bin.tar.gz |
