Get Started Using Astra
At a time when data limits are being tested, every business needs to be a digital business. That means your infrastructure needs to be solid. We already use Cassandra for the reliability and resilience to handle big workloads with zero downtime. The promise of Astra is a true Cassandra-as-a-Service with no-ops. This will help developers work more efficiently so they can spend more time innovating.Dipack Chandan
DataStax Astra helps accelerate usage of Apache Cassandra. As we continue to grow our Cassandra experience, Astra helps lower the barrier to entry and can allow developers to jump into working with Cassandra to build and deploy applications with ease.Ashwin Jaiprakash
