Description

Apache Cassandra is a free and open-source distributed NoSQL database management system designed to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers, providing high availability with no single point of failure. It provides a query language, a data model, and a set of operations for distributed data management. Cassandra is designed to be highly available and can be scaled horizontally to support more users and data. It is a distributed database system, meaning it can be used across multiple servers and locations. Cassandra offers fault tolerance, eventually consistent reads, and distributed transactions. It is suitable for applications that require a high availability and scalability, such as real-time analytics, content management systems, e-commerce applications, and social networks.
