REST APIs
Accelerate software development with an easy-to-use RESTful API that ships with Astra DB. Anything you can do with CQL, you can do with REST and JSON.
Multi-cloud DBaaS built on Apache Cassandra™
Build Modern Data Apps Faster
Astra DB simplifies cloud-native Cassandra application development. It reduces deployment time from weeks to minutes, and delivers an unprecedented combination of serverless, pay-as-you-go pricing with the freedom and agility of multi-cloud and open source.
Serverless Cassandra Reduces Total Cost of Ownership by 75%

Cassandra Made Easy in the Cloud
Free to Use
Up to 80GB storage and/or 20 million operations monthly.
Global Scale
Put your data where you need it without compromising performance, availability or accessibility.
Serverless
Lower your costs by running Cassandra clusters only when needed.
Enterprise Security
Peer cloud VPC to an Astra DB cluster to maintain private communication between cloud-based apps and Astra DB.
No Operations
Eliminate the overhead to install, operate, and scale Cassandra.
Zero Lock-in
Deploy on AWS, GCP or Azure and keep compatibility with open-source Cassandra.
Data APIs
Work natively with Document (JSON), REST, GraphQL and gRPC APIs.
Relational Indexes
Storage Attached Indexing (SAI) lets you query tables using any columns.
Build Applications Faster with Data APIs
Avoid using drivers or a custom data access layer by using Stargate, an open source, data API layer built into Astra DB. Create tables, schema and query data without learning the Cassandra Query Language. Stargate makes it easy and fast to connect your apps to Astra DB.
GraphQL
Dictate exactly what data you need, without any dependencies on backend development. Reduce over-fetching and under-fetching while maintaining performance.
Document (schemaless)
Save and search JSON documents and collections in Cassandra with no data modeling needed. The fastest way to ingest data and retrieve them.
gRPC
Blend performance with simplicity. gRPC is easier to maintain than drivers and faster than HTTP APIs. Use supported Go, Java, Node.js and Rust clients or build your own.
Freedom of Choice
Deploy Astra on Azure, GCP, or AWS
