  • The costs are slightly higher for our company
  • Hardware requirement is moderate to high at the beginning

DataStax has an amazing community built around it and is also Cassandra is an open-source technology. The customer support is quite good compared to other vendors. Though you initially need to spend some hefty amount on infrastructure, in the long run, it makes up for it. We had attended a conference where we had a hands-on workshop by DataStax and liked its features.
