Overall Satisfaction with Cassandra

Cassandra is used in my organization by my department to handle data that is not in a standard RDMBS format.
  • Runs on commodity hardware
  • Build in fault tolerance
  • Can grow horizontally
  • It is a bit difficult for people that come from the SQL world.
  • Managing anti-entropy repair is still a bit of a challenge.
  • Better security patches.
  • Nothing beats free
  • People need to be retrained
  • Support model is a bit different
It is good for what it does.
Nothing beats software that works and charges nothing. It handles data that is not fit for traditional RDBMS. However, not a lot of employees know how to use it efficiently.
