Apache Cassandra

That's us, come join!

This coming Wednesday 4pm BST (30th Oct) Join Sami Kaksonen and Mick Semb Wever for a run-through of what 5.0 brings to your existing clusters and workloads. With Sami's broad depth of experience with C* users and Mick's knowledge of the code and community, expect to get lots of useful tips for your existing clusters and workloads. ⚠️ Remember,     the C* community is no longer maintaining the 3.x versions. https://lnkd.in/d-ZYYjyw

Check out this talk from Dinesh Joshi on supporting petabyte-scale analytics on Apache Cassandra. This new approach eliminates the need for separate data clusters, delivering significant performance gains and enhanced security. A game-changer for teams seeking to streamline their analytics. #ApacheCassandra #DataAnalytics #Technology

Was so great to visit Cassandra Bay Area Meetup at Netflix hosted by Vinay Chella, with talks from Netflix (Chris Lohfink, Vidhya Arvind) Uber (Jaydeepkumar Chovatia) Apple (Dinesh Joshi) and DataStax (Patrick McFadin). Good to see such a strong and engaged community, and so much excitement around the future of Cassandra!

Power packed evening! 10/11 @5-8 PM! 𝗔𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮 5.0 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗽 𝗮𝘁 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝗳𝗹𝗶𝘅! Is Only the Beginning! My No.1 Goal is to learn New Innovation and Development- Perfect opportunity to learn how Netflix solves scaling challenges and explore innovations in Cassandra 5. 📈 Top 3 Key Takeaways: 1. Valuable insight to learn about Cassandra 5.0, especially how Netflix manages tombstones and SLO-based data retrieval. It was eye-opening! 2. The Talk on secure data processing in Cassandra 5.0 was a game-changer—understanding how to move petabytes of data w/o passwords is invaluable! 3. The Integration of GenAI w/ vector search in Cassandra 5.0 really stood out to me. I’m excited about its potential applications! Agenda: 1. How Netflix Handles C* Tombstones at Scale & How Netflix Does SLO-based Data Retrieval and Back Pressure - Vidhya Arvind 2. Incremental Repair Scheduling on C*, The Future of C* Repair - Chris Lohfink Jaydeepkumar Chovatia 3. Generative AI w/ Vector Search in Cassandra 5 - Patrick McFadin 4. Securely Processing Petabytes of data w/ Apache Cassandra 5.0 w/o passwords!

Jon Haddad talking about increasing the density of Cassandra nodes at Community over Code 2024.

Here we go!! ACID transactions are in Cassandra.next() C. Scott Andreas talks about how this is emerging from engineering at Apple and into a database near you. If you are excited, go take the Cassandra Survey and show your support. https://lnkd.in/gwVPjB-k

We need your input on the Apache Cassandra User Survey! Ten minutes could get you some sweet swag! We've got Cassandra 5 out now, and 5.1 is already underway. This is your chance to help steer the direction of the Cassandra project with your feedback. When the survey is done, two choices are available to a random group of people. We have a sweet Cassandra t-shirt or a signed copy of the "Managing Cloud Native Data on Kubernetes" book by Jeffrey Carpenter Carpenter and Patrick McFadin. All for ten minutes of effort! https://lnkd.in/ejwt44x3

Join us in Denver from October 7-10 for ASF Community Over Code conference where Cassandra committer and PMC member Josh McKenzie will present “Paging in Cassandra: Expanding Beyond Our Current Limitations”.
