One of the recent trends in cloud computing is the tendency for enterprises to use multiple clouds, either to take advantage of unique offerings per cloud vendor or to hedge their bets. Creating a data tier that spans multiple clouds is a key consideration in these architectures. Apache Cassandra is an ideal technology for the multi-cloud data tier due to its flexibility and resilience. In this talk we’ll discuss the challenges you’ll face in developing the data tier of multi-cloud applications, provide recommendations on how to address these challenges with Cassandra, and show how we created a sample application to demonstrate these recommendations in practice.
