Operating Cassandra NoSQL database across the globe - experience from high rate production environment The NoSQL databases have been gradually getting attention over the past years. Scalability, data replication and fault tolerance are common features of such products. However, the advantages do not come for free and one often must relax for other qualities such as true consistency. In this presentation we focus on Cassandra, a NoSQL database written in Java that is being massively used at Avast. We give an overview of the key concepts behind Cassandra and describe one of the Avast use cases and workload Cassandra is used for. We then focus on selected challenges that operating a multi terabyte database across the globe inevitably bring. Jiří Horký - graduate of Mathematics and Physics Faculty of Charles University in Prague, currently works as Systems engineer in Avast Software with focus on massive distributed computing, Linux clusters consisting of hundred of nodes and PBs of storage. Dynamic class loading How can we load new classes during the runtime. Problems we are facing. Limitations of the solution and its alternatives. Jan Kolena - graduate of University of West Bohemia, currently works as Java developer in Avast Software with focus on high performance Java backend applications and experienced in Android development. -- S pozdravem Roman "Dagi" Pichlik /* http://dagblog.cz/ Blog pro kodery */
