Migrate your Apache Cassandra® data into Aiven with sstableloader

What's this blog post about?

Aiven now supports sstableloader, an open source utility that enables seamless migration of data from external Apache Cassandra instances into a managed Aiven for Apache Cassandra cluster. This is achieved by bulk-loading data from remote SSTables into the target nodes' internode ports. The process involves connecting to the new Cassandra cluster to determine which nodes should receive specific rows, then uploading the SSTable data to the target nodes. Large clusters can now be migrated efficiently using sstableloader, making it an industry standard for bulk data loading into Apache Cassandra.
