ConfigurationException: Unable to find custom indexer class 'StorageAttachedIndex'

I am having this error while trying to create a new custom index. Is because of my cassandra setup? What can be done to solve this issue?

cqlsh:dblpa2> create CUSTOM INDEX ON publication(entries(authors)) USING 'StorageAttachedIndex';
ConfigurationException: Unable to find custom indexer class 'StorageAttachedIndex'

cqlsh 6.0.0 | Cassandra 4.0.6 | CQL spec 3.4.5 | Native protocol v5

I am using Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon.

Solution

  • It's because it's not yet implemented in the open source Cassandra (you can track progress in Jira, and read more in specification).

    As of right now it's available only in DataStax Enterprise and DataStax Astra.
