Is Cassandra production ready to run on Windows?

Question: Does anyone know of any Cassandra success stories running on windows in a production environment? I am doing some work on Cassandra and trying to find the right platform for this, currently the platform is Windows with MS-SQL data warehouse. what are the disadvantages, if any, of running Cassandra on a Windows environment.

I am not aware of any actual production deployments on Windows, no. (I only know of one non-Linux deployment on FreeBSD.) Should this work fine? Yes. Is there a relative lack of tools (like counting .bat files and shell scripts in bin /)? Yes.

I am not aware of any sites. I don't believe official Windows support is a priority for the Cassandra development team based on some of the comments I've seen ( see Eric Evans' comment ). With this, I am running as a windows service using Apache scrolling (prunsrv). I haven't noticed any problems running under Windows.
