[WIP] cassandra backend

[sksumit1]

Cassandra backend for powerdns

[sksumit1]

Need to install the cassandra lib on the box.

pdns_with_cassandra.m4 : Line no. 32, point to the cassandra lib.
For mac it will be dylib, for linux it will be .so file

Building cassandra lib :

Does it support pkg--config?

[cmouse]

Can you please explain this feature and why it is required? It seems bit odd place for it.

[sksumit1]

The configurations now explained in backend-cassandra.md

[cmouse]

For testing, see how remotebackend testing has been integrated with the rest of the test suite.

Also, as a note about commit messages, that they should be descriptive, but you can squash them out just before merge. No need to touch them now.

@sksumit1 what is the status of this? Does it work? Is it complete? We'd love to have a Cassandra backend!

Hi Peter,

I last worked on it in Sept 2015. At that time due to travis limitations, I
had a hard time installing cassandra 2.2
Since cassandra is a resource intensive db, if i started it before the test
suite, OOM killer would kill it, as a result cassandra's tests will fail. I
am now starting cassandrajust before executing its test suite. Cassandra's
uptime was not predictable as a result test suites were failing.
Can you confirm the current version of cassandra on travis. (When i last
checked it was cassandra 1.2)
I had been following the travis upgrade on this issue
travis-ci/travis-ci#3952, but there is still no
resolution.
I can redo my work if the travis supports min cassandra 2.1.5.

Thanks,
Sumit
