ApacheCon Keynote:
DataStax Astra and Apache Cassandra: Sustainable Open Source in the Cloud Era by Jonathan Ellis, DataStax Co-Founder and CTO - Tuesday, Sept. 29, Noon ET
Apache Cassandra is the best database for solving performance at scale. But it was designed for self-managed infrastructure. Since today's leading developers want to spend their time building applications ? not tuning databases ? DataStax created DataStax Astra, cloud-native Cassandra-as-a-Service. Join Jonathan as he discusses how DataStax built Astra and how the company is bringing the enhancements they made for Astra back to open source Cassandra ? proving that cloud and open source are not mutually exclusive.
