Disney

Application/Use Case• Meet the data management needs of user

facing applications across The Walt Disney Company with a single platform

Why Cassandra? • DataStax Enterprise can tackle real-time

and search functions in the same cluster• Scalability• 24x7 uptime

SimpleReach

Application/Use Case• SimpleReach tracks social actions for

content creators, from Twitter and Facebook to Pinterest and Reddit, to deliver detailed insights and clear metrics around social behavior.

Why Cassandra? • Very high velocity data ingest rate and

large data volumes• Workload separation between realtime and

batch applications

SourceNinja

Application/Use Case• SourceNinja notifies you to performance,

security, and bug fixes for the software you depend on

Why Cassandra? • Previous database system could not

handle load; HBase has too many points of failure and was too slow

• Fast real time capabilities, batch analytics on that data, and enterprise search

Realtime + search + analytics = DataStax Enterprise

Netflix

Application/Use Case• General purpose backend for large scale

highly available cloud based web services supporting Netflix Streaming

Why Cassandra? • Highly available, highly robust and no

schema change downtime• Highly scalable, optimized for SSD• Much lower cost than previous Oracle and

SimpleDB implementations• Flexible data model• Ability to directly influence/implement

OSS feature set• Supports local and wide area distributed

operations, spanning US and Europe

CQL: You got SQL in my NoSQL!

Strictly “realtime” focused• No joins

• No subqueries

• No aggregation functions* or GROUP BY

• Strictly limited ORDER BY
