Apache Cassandra, a scale-out datastore, is becoming more Kubernetes-native. Sam Ramji is Chief Strategy Officer at DataStax, a company that builds Cassandra-based products. He explains how DataStax has pivoted back towards supporting upstream Cassandra, and how they’re making it easier to manage on Kubernetes. As always, we also cover the news of the week, and we look at what is and is not a dinosaur.
