<\/a><\/p>\nCassandra is best described as,<\/p>\n
\nApache Cassandra is an advanced, second-generation “NoSQL” distributed data store that has a shared-nothing architecture. The Cassandra decentralized model provides massive scalability, and is highly available with no single point of failure even under the worst scenarios.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Clearly, it is a NoSQL database system and has a decentralized model making all the distributed components participating equally and eliminating the need of a single management point. This makes it reliable and prevents failures.<\/p>\n
Cassandra is widely popular and is used in services like Cisco WebEx, Cloudkick, Digg, Facebook, Rackspace, Reddit, and Twitter. Facebook is an integral part in the development of Cassandra.<\/p>\n
Chris Goffinet, Performance and Availability Architect of Digg commented on this release saying,<\/p>\n
\nDigg is very excited to see Cassandra mature in the last year and graduate to a top-level Apache project. Cassandra is powering our next generation infrastructure, and allowing us to run in an environment that demands data access in datacenters around the world.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
The new features in the version 0.6 are mainly speed centric. There is a 30% speed improvement in speed. Another feature is the Integrated Row Cache<\/strong>. This eliminates any need for an external caching layer. This makes the implementation and deployment a lot simpler.<\/p>\n
The new version of Cassandra brings good news in times when Internet users and website loads are increasing tenfold.<\/p>\n
