Obviously my inquiry was misdirected. Steven. You will have to pardon me, I was 
merely searching for help. I do appreciate you pointing me in the right 
direction (Datastax), and will be referring them to our customer.  Thank you.

Good point, Viktor...I didn't bother checking if they were consulting firm
or recruiting...which you are correct, they appear to be head hunters.  My
mistake in thinking the OP was involved in a more direct consulting
situation and discovered they needed some outside expertise -- I guess
my skepticism filter is lower for a message on an OSS mailing list =)

Well played, OP

Consulting company is a body shop that looking for a job candidates for their 
clients, shortly - recruiters, so not interested in support or learning, just 
selling bodies with some brains.

Hi Liz,

Are you looking for a reference to professional cassandra services/support...or 
looking to learn cassandra to provide said support?  If the former, I highly 
recommend DataStax 
(http://www.datastax.com/what-we-offer/products-services/consulting).  I'm a 
non-affiliated future customer (adoption delay is on our side), and have thus 
far received great support from their sales and technical teams - they have 
spent a lot of time out of hide to capture my needs and answer my questions.

...not to mention their direct ties to apache cassandra 
(http://www.datastax.com/what-we-offer/products-services/datastax-enterprise/apache-cassandra),
 they obviously have the technical capabilities current and future.
