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 data model from Google's
[[http://research.google.com/archive/bigtable-osdi06.pdf|BigTable]]. Like
Dynamo, Cassandra is

consistent]]. Like BigTable, Cassandra provides a ColumnFamily-based data
model richer than typical key/value systems.

Cassandra was open sourced by Facebook in 2008, where it was designed by Avinash Lakshman (one of the authors of Amazon's Dynamo) and Prashant Malik ( Facebook Engineer ). In a lot of ways you can think of Cassandra as Dynamo 2.0 or a marriage of Dynamo and BigTable. Cassandra is in production use at Facebook but is still under heavy development.
