+`Abstract…Configuration` classes wire all the necessary beans for using Cassandra from your application.
+The configuration assumes a single `CqlSession` and wires it through `SessionFactory` into the related components such as `CqlTemplate`.
+If you want to customize the creation of the `CqlSession`, then you can provide a `SessionBuilderConfigurer` function to customize `CqlSessionBuilder`.
+This is useful to provide e.g. a Cloud Connection Bundle for Astra.
