What is it that makes Cassandra just so scalable? Certainly, it supports clusters spanning multiple datacenters. Some of the principles it follows are as follows:
1. No single points of failure (Decentralized)
2. Fault tolerance through Replication to multiple nodes, enabling failing nodes to be replaced without data loss
3. High performance (as measured in benchmarking against other NoSQL databases)
The Weather Channel, CERN and Instagram are among the top-billed users of Cassandra.
