KEY FEATURES

Data sets can outgrow traditional databases, much like children outgrow clothes. Unlike, children’s growth patterns, however, massive amounts of data can be extremely unpredictable and unstructured. For Big Data, the Cassandra distributed database is the solution, using partitioning and replication to ensure that your data is structured and available even when nodes in a cluster go down. Children, you’re on your own.
