Connection of Power BI with Cassandra

Greetings,

 

I am looking for a way to connect Power BI to cassandra.

I know that the direct connection isn't possible and it needs to go through the ODBC connection by the use of a driver.

Taken from: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-connect-using-generic-interfaces

However, I am struggling with a step by step documentation of how it can be connected and setup with the help of a driver.

Can somebody guide me?

I prefer using DataStax instead of CData due to the licensing contraints of the client

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @PC2790 ,

 

Check the blog about how to connect to Cassandra as an ODBC data source.
