Apache Cassandra: All Fundamentals to Start

About This Course

We found an excellent starting point for working with Apache Cassandra! This well-structured, thorough, concise, coherent, precise and clear course with a great balance of theory and practice touches all the areas of Apache Casandra starting from Cassandra overview to Cassandra architecture, Multiple DC replication, etc. All the exercises and materials are provided for hands-on practices. Welcome the Apache Casandra: All Fundamentals to Start course that teaches you the basics of working with Cassandra. This guide is designed for an absolute beginner, meaning no experience with Apache Cassandra is required. But note that you should have an experience with databases, SQL, and programming. You will start by learning how to install Cassandra, and then move onto understanding ways to communicate with Cassandra. From there, this course will teach you how to create a database, create a table, and insert and model data. You will also discover how to monitor a cluster, repair and remove nodes, and redefine a cluster. Now when you have a starting point, we can only say: On Your Marks! Get Set! Go!
