MEETUP!! A developers perspective on Cassandra

We are excited to announce Nanna Einarsdóttir for this meetup! Nanna is the Vice President of Engineering at Ankeri and will explain their choice to use Cassandra for a new major project - through the eyes of a developer.

Ankeri is a software company operating in the shipping industry, focused on streamlining the communication between ship owners and charterers and to help both parties stay on top of fleet performance and potential chartering prospects.

The latest addition to the product catalog of Ankeri is the Data connections hub, which is a robust and scalable infrastructure where source data from various different real-time ship data sources is made available to the customer via a single API in a format of their choosing.

Talk 1:
Nanna will talk about how a small start-up company with a vast experience in software development and the required business logic, but a data-modelling experience limited to the relational world, took on this journey - and how it turned out.

Talk 2:
Michel de Ru (DataStax) will show you how easy it is to use Cassandra in a modern development stack using REST and GraphQL APIs. Secondly he’ll show you how to use Cassandra as a full-fledged Document DB!

Quiz Time!
As always, it will be interactive! We will have a quiz and give out some Cassandra swag or Astra credits so don’t be shy and show your knowledge!
