Introduction to Cassandra
Cassandra, more than any other database, is the poster child of Cloud data stores.
Come listen to Gary Dusbabek, systems architect and Cassandra committer at Rackspace, talk about the database Facebook created and gave to the Apache Foundation, now used in production at Rackspace, Digg, Reddit, and Twitter.
In this session, you'll learn
- Under what conditions it is better to use Cassandra over other data stores
- What the data model is like (key spaces, etc)
- How you can get started
- How to operate Cassandra
Food and drinks graciously provided by Fenwick.

I can't go to this next meetup about Cassandra because I'm out of town, but the topic really interests me. If anyone records this talk, please post it so that I can watch it afterwards. Thanks!
