This introductory session is perfect for those coming from a relational background and wanting to get hands-on with a denormalized database that has no tables, rows, primary keys, or foreign keys, yet has a SQL-like query dialect. As the original cloud-native database, developers choose Cassandra for its linear scalability and proven fault tolerance on commodity hardware or cloud infrastructure. It’s the perfect platform for mission-critical data in apps, functions, and microservices, particularly at a global scale.

You can expect to leave this introductory session with :

  • Your own database running in the cloud
  • An understanding of why Cassandra is in the top 3 database salaries worldwide
  • Learn the fundamental NoSQL concepts with Apache Cassandra™
  • Discover what NoSQL is and what it can do in key-value, columnar, and document models
  • Get hands-on with NoSQL data modeling concepts
  • Set up your own NoSQL database using Astra DB free plan - no credit card required
