What is the purpose of using thrift in Cassandra?

Question

Could anyone tell me the purpose of using thrift in Cassandra?

Thrift is actually an RPC protocol or API unified with a code generation tool for CQL, and the purpose of using thrift in Cassandra is because it facilitates easy access to Database (DB), across the Programming Language.
