Cassandra is a distributed NoSQL database management system.

Cassandra is designed to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers, providing high availability with no single point of failure. It offers linear scalability and fault tolerance, making it a popular choice for big data applications that require high performance and reliability. Cassandra's data model is based on a column-family structure, which allows for flexible schema design and efficient data storage and retrieval. It also supports ACID transactions and provides tunable consistency levels to balance data consistency and availability. Cassandra is used by companies such as Netflix, eBay, and Twitter for their mission-critical applications.
