Ben Standefer commented on CASSANDRA-873:
-----------------------------------------
I'm interesting in mentoring for this position. I think Ruby or Python would
be best for an example app, and I think that having a well-documented Lucandra
implementation (Wikipedia search) could really help a broad range of people
out. I've developed a Cassandra-based recommendation engine in Python for
Eventbrite (launches soon), and I'm about to start with the SimpleGeo crew,
which is all Cassandra-based.
> Create a Cassandra demo application

> Key: CASSANDRA-873
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-873
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Priority: Minor
>
> http://twissandra.com/ is a demo Cassandra application built on django +
> pycassa. It's a great Cassandra showcase and very useful for people learning
> Cassandra. We could use more of those.
> Jake Luciani suggested one that presents full-text search of Wikipedia using
> Lucandra (see
> http://blog.sematext.com/2010/02/09/lucandra-a-cassandra-based-lucene-backend/
> and http://github.com/tjake/Lucandra). Feel free to propose other
> application ideas here.
> Rackspace is willing to provide a VM to deploy on for a live demo, but
> remember, to be really useful this needs full DIY instructions, the final
> product is not the demo but the code + instructions.
