Hi! I think that the best place to start is to see the DataStax videos. They are really useful and explain things really well. Check them here <https://academy.datastax.com/courses>. Although thee DS101 doesn't contain any deep architecture info, they tell you how Cassandra first came to be. On DS201 they cover architecture details so I think that will be your main focus to start.
The GettingStarted wiki <https://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted> on Planet Cassandra is also really useful and contains links to other useful sites (including the videos on DataStax). Best of luck with your Cassandra journey ;) Regards Pedro Gordo On 28 March 2016 at 13:48, Salih Gedik <m...@salih.xyz> wrote: > Hey there, > > I am Salih, a sophomore CS student.
