1.       Do the same people where you work operate the cluster and write
the code to develop the application?

No, we have a small infrastructure team, and many people developing
applications using Cassandra

2.       Do you have a metrics stack that allows you to see graphs of
various metrics with all the nodes displayed together?

Yes, we use a re-implementation of Graphite, which we open-sourced and now
lives at https://github.com/go-graphite

3.       Do you have a log stack that allows you to see the logs for all
the nodes together?

Yes, although in practice we don't use it much for Cassandra

4.       Do you regularly repair your clusters - such as by using Reaper?

Yes, we have built our own tools for this

5.       Do you use artificial intelligence to help manage your clusters?

It's not "artificial intelligence" the way most people would describe it,
but we certainly don't run our clusters manually
