PHP Driver and DS Bulk

[Rik Davis]

Does anyone know if the Cassandra PHP Driver makes use of dsbulk for batch execution or is it just broken down to a line-by-line execution into a Cassandra endpoint?

I need a very clear answer on this because this is part of a cost analysis investigation I am conducting for my company and the answer to this question will steer us in one of 3 directions.

   Thanks for your question Rik!

   As mentioned on the Github repo the PHP driver is a PHP-friendly wrapper around the DataStax C/C++ driver.  That driver is used for all interactions with the Cassandra cluster; dsbulk is not used.

Thank you, Bret. Sincerely appreciate that response. I'm assuming that if I were to run a benchmark of loading 100K records to Cassandra using dsbulk vs the PHP driver, that the performance would likely lean more in favor of dsbulk. Would this be a safe assumption?

Warmest regards,

Rik Davis
