Apache Cassandra is a free and open-source distributed database.
|
||
|
|
It is a Java-based, highly scalable, eventually consistent, wide
|
||
|
|
column store. Cassandra database clusters are masterless with no
|
||
|
|
single point of failure. Replication can be configured across
|
||
|
|
multiple data centers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Originally influenced by Dynamo and BigTable, Cassandra was initially
|
||
|
|
developed at and open sourced by Facebook before becoming a top-level
|
||
|
|
Apache project.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The CQL query language offers SQL-like data access and management.
|
||
|
|
Drivers are available for a number of languages.
