> This is a proposal for GSoC2013: create an Resource Provider that allows resources stored in Apache Cassandra to be exposed as Sling Resources.
> Resources[1] are the basic building blocks of Sling.
> ResourceProviders[2] allow data sources to be added to the core ResourceProvider within Sling allowing those data sources to provide Resources at pre-determined locations in the resource tree. To put it in more familiar terms, implementing and adding a Resource provider is like mounting or mapping a network drive.
> A more recent addition to the facilities available in Sling include updatable ResourceProviders.
> Apache Cassandra[3] is a column database (NoSQL) which aims to provide linear scalability to web scale. It is used by many of the best known names on the internet.
> Initially this will provide read only resource access, but if there is time in the project will allow read write access to a cassandra cluster.
> Advanced Java skills are required, some knowledge of OSGi, Sling, Cassandra will be valuable.
