15. Success Story - Netflix
Netflix systems are run in the cloud across multiple availability zones
with Cassandra and sport constant uptime. Over 95% of Netflix’s data
is stored in Cassandra (much of it previously on Oracle).
16. Success Story - Netflix
Commenting on Amazon outage in Oct 2012: “We configure all our clusters
to use a replication factor of three, with each replica located in a different
Availability Zone. This allowed Cassandra to handle the outage remarkably
well. When a single zone became unavailable, we didn't need to do
anything. Cassandra routed requests around the unavailable zone and when
it recovered, the ring was repaired.”
