Cassandra: The Definitive Guide - Distributed Data at Web Scale, Second Edition

With no previous knowlwdge on Cassandra I picked up this book and read cover to cover. I'm quite satisfied with the depth each architectural concept, data modeling, configuration, performance tuning, maintenance and every other aspect of managing a Cassandra DB is explained.

great book, esp if you have already read Cassandra somewhere and have fair understanding or practical experience. If you are looking to practice, I would instead suggest to check some other publications.

Excelente libro

Achei o livro excelente. Apenas uma ressalva por não explorar tanto a modelagem de tabelas. É uma ótima base pra quem quer uma visão geral do produto

Ho letto questo libro per aumentare la mia conoscenza dei database no sql. Il libro è chiaro e completo. La mia valutazione è quindi positiva.

Comprehensive explanation of Cassandra, useful for both developers and system administrators.I had to write 8 more words to complete this review.

Tried to catch up Cassandra using couple of books and this is the one which is way better than the others. This book covers both plan/design, installation of Cassandra and integrate with other tools.I would suggest this book as a must buy for anyone who wants to learns about Cassandra. If possible try to grab the Kindle edition which allows you to read across platforms.
