Proven

Cassandra is in use at DiggFacebook,TwitterRedditRackspaceCloudkick, Cisco, SimpleGeo, Ooyala, OpenX, and more companies that have large, active data sets. The largest production cluster has over 100 TB of data in over 150 machines.

Fault Tolerant

Data is automatically replicated to multiple nodes for fault-tolerance. Replication across multiple data centers is supported. Failed nodes can be replaced with no downtime.

Decentralized

Every node in the cluster is identical. There are no network bottlenecks. There are no single points of failure.

You're in control

Choose between synchronous or asynchronous replication for each update. Highly available asynchronus operations are optimized with features like Hinted Handoffand Read Repair.

Rich Data Model

Allows efficient use for many applications beyond simple key/value.

Elastic

Read and write throughput both increase linearly as new machines are added, with no downtime or interruption to applications.

Durable

Cassandra is suitable for applications that can't afford to lose data, even when an entire data center goes down.
