+ <!-- Introductory section -->
+ <h2 class="content">Welcome to the Cassandra Project</h2>
+
+ <p>Cassandra is a highly scalable, eventually consistent, distributed,
+ structured key-value store. Cassandra brings together the distributed
+ systems technologies from <a
href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/AllThingsDistributed/sosp/amazon-dynamo-sosp2007.pdf";>Dynamo</a>
+ and the data model from Google's <a
href="http://labs.google.com/papers/bigtable-osdi06.pdf";>BigTable</a>.
+ Like Dynamo, Cassandra is <a
href="http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2008/12/eventually_consistent.html";>eventually
consistent</a>.
+ Like BigTable, Cassandra provides a ColumnFamily-based data model
+ richer than typical key/value systems.</p>
+
+ <p>Cassandra was open sourced by Facebook in 2008, where it was
+ designed by one of the authors of Amazon's Dynamo. In a lot of ways
+ you can think of Cassandra as Dynamo 2.0. Cassandra is in
+ production use at Facebook but is still under heavy
+ development.</p>
+
+ <!-- Features section -->
+ <h2 class="content"><a name="features">Features</a></h2>
+ <p>Cassandra's Features:</p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>Cassandra is designed to be always available. Writes never fail.
+ Two read paths are available: high-performance "weak" reads and
+ quorum reads. See <a
href="http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CSDR/ThriftInterface";>ThriftInterface</a>.</li>
+ <li>Cassandra has a rich <a
href="http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CSDR/Data+Model";>data
model</a>
+ allowing efficient use for many applications beyond simple
+ key/value.</li>
+ <li>Data is automatically replicated to multiple nodes for
+ fault-tolerance. There is support for implementing strategies that
+ replicate across multiple data centers.</li>
+ <li>Elasticity: new nodes can be added to a running cluster while
+ minimizing disruption to existing data.</li>
+ <li>Consistency: Cassandra follows the <a
href="http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2008/12/eventually_consistent.html";>"eventually
consistent" model</a>
+ but includes sophisticated features such as Hinted Handoff and Read
+ Repair to minimize inconsistency windows.</li>
+ <li>Reads and writes in Cassandra are guaranteed to be atomic within
+ a single ColumnFamily.</li>
+ <li>Support for versioning and conflict resolution (with inbuilt
+ policies like "last update wins").</li>
+ </ol>
+
