<meta name="description" content="The Apache Cassandra database is the right choice when you need scalability and high availability without compromising performance. Linear scalability and proven fault-tolerance on commodity hardware or cloud infrastructure make it the perfect platform for mission-critical data. Cassandra's support for replicating across multiple datacenters is best-in-class, providing lower latency for your users and the peace of mind of knowing that you can survive regional outages.

<h4><a href="/blog/2018/10/29/audit_logging_cassandra.html">Audit Logging in Apache Cassandra 4.0</a></h4>
<p>Posted on October 29, 2018 by the Apache Cassandra Community</p>
<p>Database audit logging is an industry standard tool for enterprises to
capture critical data change events including what data changed and who
triggered the event. These captured records can then be reviewed later
to ensure compliance with regulatory, security and operational policies.</p>

<h4><a href="/blog/2018/10/17/finding_bugs_with_property_based_testing.html">Finding Bugs in Cassandra's Internals with Property-based Testing</a></h4>
<p>Posted on October 17, 2018 by the Apache Cassandra Community</p>
<p>As of September 1st, the Apache Cassandra community has shifted the focus of Cassandra 4.0 development from new feature work to testing, validation, and hardening, with the goal of releasing a stable 4.0 that every Cassandra user, from small deployments to large corporations, can deploy with confidence. There are several projects and methodologies that the community is undertaking to this end. One of these is the adoption of property-based testing, which was <a href="http://cassandra.apache.org/blog/2018/08/21/testing_apache_cassandra.html">previously introduced here</a>. This post will take a look at a specific use of this approach and how it found a bug in a new feature meant to ensure data integrity between the client and Cassandra.</p>

<h4><a href="/blog/2018/08/21/testing_apache_cassandra.html">Testing Apache Cassandra 4.0</a></h4>
<p>Posted on August 21, 2018 by the Apache Cassandra Community</p>
<p>With the goal of ensuring reliability and stability in Apache Cassandra 4.0, the project’s committers have voted to freeze new features on September 1 to concentrate on testing and validation before cutting a stable beta. Towards that goal, the community is investing in methodologies that can be performed at scale to exercise edge cases in the largest Cassandra clusters. The result, we hope, is to make Apache Cassandra 4.0 the best-tested and most reliable major release right out of the gate.</p>

<h4><a href="/blog/2018/08/07/faster_streaming_in_cassandra.html">Hardware-bound Zero Copy Streaming in Apache Cassandra 4.0</a></h4>
<p>Posted on August 07, 2018 by The Apache Cassandra Community</p>
<p>Streaming in Apache Cassandra powers host replacement, range movements, and cluster expansions. Streaming plays a crucial role in the cluster and as such its performance is key to not only the speed of the operations its used in but the cluster’s health generally. In Apache Cassandra 4.0, we have introduced an improved streaming implementation that reduces GC pressure and increases throughput several folds and are now limited, in some cases, only by the disk / network IO (See: <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14556">CASSANDRA-14556</a>).</p>
