Apache Cassandra is a highly available, distributed, partitioned row store. It is one of the more popular NoSQL databases used by both small and large companies all over the world to store and efficiently retrieve large amounts of data. While there are licensed, proprietary versions available (which include enterprise support), Cassandra is also a top-level project of the Apache Software Foundation, and has deep roots in the open source community. This makes Cassandra a proven and battle-tested approach to scaling high-throughput applications.
