K8ssandra, a distribution of Apache Cassandra that runs on Kubernetes, which
offers a suite of tools to ease and autom [...]

+A new series that we've dubbed "Inside Cassandra" where we interview engineers
and devs in the community either about their use of Apache Cassandra to power
their businesses or how they contribute to the project. The first installation
features an interview with Marcel Birkner, Site Reliability Engineer at
Instana, and how they use Apache Cassandra to store and process metric data at
scale and benefit from Cassandra’s fault tolerance, and have learned the
importance of dog-fooding.
