5. Pick of the Week
This week, we're having a look the what Datastax has built on top of the already highly used Cassandra database.
Cassandra has been out for a while, and it's what powers sites with crazy scale – the Facebooks and the Netflixes of the world. If you need scalability and basically no-downtime, you're definitely looking at Cassandra.
But, the dev story with it can be slow – you couldn't really prototype quickly with Cassandra. That's all different now, with the three APIs built on top of the open-source Cassandra – REST, GraphQL, and JSON/Document APIs:
Oh, and not having the need to operate and scale-out the cluster using the DataStax cloud is pretty cool.
Definitely use their monthly free credits to explore the system.
