Multi-datacenter Replication in Cassandra

DataStax Enterprise leverages Cassandra's innate datacenter concepts, allowing multiple workloads to run across multiple datacenters without ETL processes or manual operations. This enables a natural distribution of data from real-time datacenters to near real-time analytics and search datacenters. Implementing datacenters as divisions between varying workloads allows for efficient handling of writes and updates, with the option to use different datacenters as live backups that can quickly be used as fallback clusters. Additionally, data can be housed in different datacenters based on user location to provide more responsive exchange while maintaining low operational costs by keeping all datacenters within the same cluster.
