Apache Cassandra is a distributed NoSQL database that provides scalability, high performance, and fault tolerance, making it ideal for large-scale cloud applications. Kubernetes (K8s) is an orchestration platform for deploying and managing containerized systems in the cloud. The integration of Cassandra with Kubernetes allows enterprises to meet increasing data and storage requirements in global-scale applications. Both technologies support horizontal or vertical scaling, self-healing capabilities, and can be deployed on various platforms such as on-premises, with a cloud provider, or a mix of both. K8ssandra is an open-source tool that simplifies the process of operating Cassandra on Kubernetes and building applications on top of it. It provides an ecosystem of tools for monitoring, optimizing data management, and automated operations alongside Cassandra. Deploying Cassandra on Kubernetes with K8ssandra offers a developer-friendly experience and helps manage complexities in scaling and orchestrating containers.
