What changed in the Cassandra-Spark integration connector package?

Question

I am not able to import com.datastax.spark.connector.CassandraJavaUtil, a class which some documentation mentions e.g. here.

But I am able to import com.datastax.spark.connector.japi.CassandraJavaUtil. I'd like to understand the mismatch. Was the japi package added? Removed? I am apparently using a newer version than that DataSparx documentation. (I am using v. 1.1.0-rc, and that page mentions 0.9.)

Could someone explain what happened in the recent version history of the DataStax Cassandra-Spark connector?

Hope it helps.
