A high level cassandra java client.
Cassandra is a highly available column oriented database: http://incubator.apache.org/cassandra/
Hector is the greatest warrior in the greek mithology, Troy's builder and brother of Cassandra

This client provides:
o high level, simple object oriented interface to cassandra
o failover behavior on the client side
o connection pooling for improved performance and scalability
o JMX conters for monitoring and management
o load balancing
TODO:
o Add more JMX stats, especially for read and write throughput management
The work was initially inspired by http://code.google.com/p/cassandra-java-client/ but has taken off to different directions since.
