Consolidate on Cassandra with Modern APIs and Reduce Time to Market by 50%
Apache Cassandraâ„¢ has gained popularity due to its high availability and scalability, supporting thousands of companies in backing their high-performance applications. Recent innovations like Project K8ssandra and Stargate have further enhanced Cassandra's capabilities. Stargate offers modern data APIs such as REST, schemaless JSON, and GraphQL, enabling developers to prototype quickly and back production applications with Cassandra using familiar APIs. It also supports multiple data models, including documents, key-value, and tabular. DataStax's Astra provides a serverless Cassandra-as-a-Service option that is free for prototyping purposes. Developers can use tools like Postman as the client interface and transition to using Stargate with existing Cassandra OSS or DSE in production environments.
