This cluster should not be used for general development work, but to stage changes destined for production; Do not deploy changes or carry out activities that you do not expect to likewise rollout to production.

To obtain developer access, follow the usual process for submitting an access request .

After obtaining access, you can run cqlsh by using sudo and the surrogate user cassandra_devel . This user has been pre-configured for access using a dedicated Cassandra role (also named cassandra_devel ).

user@home: ~$ ssh cassandra-dev2001.codfw.wmnet
user@cassandra-dev2001:~$ sudo -u cassandra_devel cqlsh cassandra-dev2001-a
Connected to cassandra-dev at cassandra-dev2001-a:9042

As cassandra_devel you can read, write, and delete to all tables (not just those owned by you or your team), so be a good neighbor.
