DataStax Devcenter fails to connect to the remote cassandra database

Try this.. It worked for me!

Run the following command on your machine where you have DevCenter installed

$> ssh -L 9042:localhost:9042 @ -N

After running this command, it will prompt for password

Now in your DevCenter > Contact Hosts, provide "127.0.0.1" and test connection. Bingo, you see the magic...
