Cassandra History

Cassandra Use Cases

Cassandra Distributions

  • Datastax - Most widely used commercial distribution of Apache Cassandra, integrated with Apache Spark (for SparkSQL, analytics), Apache Solr (for secondary index), Apache TinkerPop based Graph stored in Cassandra, and OpsCenter.
  • Elassandra: Elassandra = Elasticsearch as a Cassandra secondary index.
  • ScyllaDB- NoSQL data store using the seastar framework, compatible with Apache Cassandra
  • YugaByte Database - YugaByteDB is a transactional, high-performance database for building distributed cloud services. It supports Cassandra-compatible and Redis-compatible APIs, with PostgreSQL in Beta.
  • Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB: Apache Cassandra API - Azure Cosmos DB provides the Cassandra API (preview) for applications that are written for Apache Cassandra that need premium capabilities.

Integrating with Cassandra

Spark

  • DataStax Spark Cassandra Connector: This library lets you expose Cassandra tables as Spark RDDs, write Spark RDDs to Cassandra tables, and execute arbitrary CQL queries in your Spark applications.
  • Stratio Deep (deprecated): Deep is a thin integration layer between Apache Spark and several NoSQL datastores. We actually support Apache Cassandra and MongoDB, but in the near future we will add support for sever other datastores.
  • sample Spark Job Server Cassandra - Simple sample job illustrating the use of Spark Jobserver to execute Apache Spark analytics with Cassandra.
  • fluxcapacitor/pipeline: End-to-End, Real-time, Advanced Analytics Big Data Reference Pipeline using Spark, Spark SQL, Spark ML, GraphX, Spark Streaming, Kafka, NiFi, Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Redis, Tachyon, HDFS, Zeppelin, iPython/Jupyter Notebook, Tableau, Twitter Algebird.

Search / Secondary Indexes

  • Tuning DSE Search Tuning DSE Search – Indexing latency and query latency
  • Elassandra: Elassandra = Elasticsearch as a Cassandra secondary index.
  • Cassandra Lucene Index: Lucene based secondary indexes for Cassandra
  • OLD - Solandra: Solandra is a real-time distributed search engine built on Apache Solr and Apache Cassandra.
