Description

Cassandra is a distributed database from Apache that is highly scalable and designed to manage very large amounts of structured data. It provides high availability with no single point of failure.

Apache Cassandra is a NoSQL database capable of handling large amounts of data that change rapidly. In this course, learn about the architecture of this popular database, and discover how to design Cassandra data models that support scalable applications. The course highlights the differences between Cassandra and relational databases, discusses the Cassandra Query Language (CQL).

The course starts off with  the installation of Oracle’s  virtualbox and ubuntu-linux followed by the installing of Cassandra on the Ubuntu-linux virtual machine. The course then covers a basic introduction of Cassandra followed by its architecture, installation, and  how to perform operations such as create, alter, update, and delete on keyspaces, tables, and indexes using CQLSH
