Cassandra
-
The large volume and extensive variety of data that is required by today’s business processes need for a highly available, low latency database. Apache Cassandra delivers this solution by enabling high-speed reads and writes across a replicated, distributed system. This Apache Cassandra training program provides data modeling experience in order to take advantage of Cassandra’s linearly scalable peer-to-peer design.
The evolution of Big Data is now evolving the landscape of big businesses. While this raw data is difficult to harness, Apache Cassandra, the open source NoSQL distributed database management system is able to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers. MobiGnosis’ Cassandra training program will teach you all about the fundamentals of Cassandra, starting from the basics to the more advanced methodologies. Here you will learn Cassandra Data models, Cassandra Architecture, about configuration, reading and writing data and integrating it with Hadoop from our Cassandra training which also includes practice sessions for your better understanding. Knowledge of this new-age technology is just what you require to have a successful career and our trainers will help you excel in it!
