The Apache Cassandra database is the right choice when you need
scalability and high availability without compromising performance. <a

scalability</a> and proven fault-tolerance on commodity hardware or cloud
infrastructure make it the perfect platform for mission-critical data.
Cassandra's support for replicating across multiple datacenters is
best-in-class, providing lower latency for your users and the peace of mind of
knowing that you can survive regional outages.
