The Cassandra distributed database
Apache Cassandra is a highly scalable second-generation distributed database, bringing together Dynamo's fully distributed design and Bigtable's ColumnFamily-based data model.
Cassandra is used at Facebook, Digg, Twitter, Mahalo, Ooyala, SimpleGEO, Rackspace, and other companies that need high scalability, availability, and fault tolerance.
This talk will cover
- Cassandra architecture and data model
- Case studies: what people are using Cassandra for in production
- Road map: where Cassandra development is headed
