Central Iowa Software Symposium

Introduction to Apache Cassandra
Saturday - Aug 6 1:30 PM CDT - WOODBURY
In this talk we will explore topology of cassandra cluster. We will explore how data is spread around a cluster in cassandra? Then we will look at snitches and launch Cassandra clusters using Docker. In the end we will look at nodetool commands to work with cluster.
We will explore replication strategies within Cassandra. In the end we will look at CQL (Cassandra Query Language), which is used for interacting with Cassandra. We will also explore how Cassandra is integrated with Datastax framework.

Key takeaways for this talk will be for a developer and architect to understand how Apache Cassandra is one of the best solutions for storing and retrieving data. We will also explore how Cassandra is integrated with Datastax framework.
