It is indeed based on Apache Cassandra, but also includes much more: <a href="http://www.datastax.com/products/enterprise" rel="nofollow">http://www.datastax.com/products/enterprise</a></p> <p>You should be able to find any information you need about Apache Cassandra here: <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/</a> </p> http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/cassandra-beginers#post-7649 Thu, 22 Nov 2012 19:01:35 +0000 matteraf 7649@http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/ <p>Datastax provides support, and you pay for it.<br /> It's like mysql, redhat or any open source product: you can use, but you need to pay to get support.<br /> That's all I guess. </p> http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/cassandra-beginers#post-7624 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 23:53:26 +0000 monmel 7624@http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/ <p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>I am going to make a presentation this Friday about DataStax Enterprise, Apache Cassandra, and the paper "Why NOSQL?".</p> <p>but till now I have some questions :</p> <p>1. I read that DataStax is the "commercial" company behind Cassandra.</p> <p>what does it mean "commercial company", while cassandra is a free product?</p> <p>2. What is Apache Cassandra, and who created it?</p> <p>Thanks in advance. </p>
