Apache Cassandra overview

What is Apache Cassandra?

Apache Cassandra is an open-source NoSQL database that helps businesses manage large amounts of data across multiple nodes, providing fast and reliable performance along with high availability.

The most popular use cases for Apache Cassandra are Backup/Archive, Big Data Analytics with Hadoop, and Log/Metrics Collection. With horizontal scalability, it can rapidly store, retrieve and manage data while providing high availability with no single point of failure.

Apache Cassandra offers robust support for clusters spanning multiple data centers, with asynchronous masterless replication allowing low latency operations for all clients.
