Building Apache Cassandra Databases Training
Level: Intermediate
Rating:
4.57/5 Based on 7 Reviews
This Cassandra Database training course will teach you to architect and engineer Cassandra databases for competitive advantage, model data in Cassandra based on query patterns and access Cassandra databases using CQL and Java. In addition, you learn how to create a balance between read/write speed and consistency, integrate Cassandra with Hadoop, Pig and Hive and implement commonly used Cassandra design patterns.
The large volume and variety of data that today's businesses process require the need for a highly available, low latency database. Apache Cassandra provides this solution by permitting high-speed reads and writes across a replicated, distributed system. Attend this hands-on Cassandra Database course and learn to leverage all its features.

Cassandra Database Training FAQs
What is Cassandra?
Apache Cassandra provides a solution to the large volume of variety of data by permitting high-speed reads and writes across a replicated, distributed system.
Where does Cassandra fit in my data science training?
A data science algorithm will ingest data from an appropriate storage technology like a relational database, Cassandra, MongoDB, Hadoop distributed file system into R or Python for data wrangling and model building. If the amount of data is large execution is performed in parallel using Spark. Spark could be deployed on Cassandra itself or on Hadoop’s HDFS file system or other file systems. The results are often visualised by the end user on dashboards.
Can I learn to build a Cassandra database online?
Yes! We know your busy work schedule may prevent you from getting to one of our classrooms which is why we offer convenient online training to meet your needs wherever you want, including online training.
