Cassandra is a highly scalable, eventually consistent, distributed, structured key-value store. Cassandra brings together the distributed systems technologies from [[http://s3.amazonaws.com/AllThingsDistributed/sosp/amazon-dynamo-sosp2007.pdf|Dynamo]] and the log-structured storage engine from Google's [[http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable-osdi06.pdf|BigTable]].
