Interface SessionFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractRoutingSessionFactory, DefaultSessionFactory

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface SessionFactory

A factory for Apache Cassandra sessions.

An alternative to the Cluster facility, a SessionFactory object is the preferred means of getting a connection. The SessionFactory interface is implemented by a Session provider.

A SessionFactory object can have properties that can be modified when necessary. For example, if the Session is moved to a different server, the property for the server can be changed. The benefit is that because the data source's properties can be changed, any code accessing that SessionFactory does not need to be changed.
