Topic
This presentation will provide an overview of Apache Cassandra and its usage in mission critical, online environments. Cassandra was initially designed to be continuously available no matter the amount of data storage. Both development functionality (new features in Cassandra 1.2) and operational benefits (multi datacenter replication and backups) will be covered, and the format will be relaxed to ensure all questions are answered.

About the Location
Both the entrance and parking is available in the parking garage below the building. Enter the tenant (not visitor)parking garage from the west side of the building, off of Howell St. (Street View: http://goo.gl/maps/9Cgz ). Use the east elevators up to the 2nd floor, Suite 220 (just follow the posted signs). It's directly above Christie's. Follow the signs. NOTE: you can enter the building from the atrium door or the parking garage (not McKinney Ave). Make sure to use the EAST elevator shaft, or you won't find us.
