About
Apache Cassandra is an open-source distributed NoSQL database management system designed for handling massive amounts of structured data across commodity servers, offering high availability, fault tolerance, and linear horizontal scalability with no single point of failure. Originally developed at Facebook in 2007 (to power the Facebook Inbox search feature), Cassandra was open-sourced in 2008 and became an Apache Software Foundation project in 2010. The technology is widely deployed at scale-intensive companies including Discord, Netflix, Apple, Uber, and Instagram.
