About the Book

Written in a clear, step-by-step manner, this 400-page course provides an excellent starting point for people that want to get into Apache Cassandra and learn best by doing.

A high-quality, project-based, hands-on training courseware book, Apache Cassandra Hands-On Training Level One is designed to be used as the student book for a 2-day introductory level Cassandra course delivered by a Cassandra instructor. Having said that, this book can also be done as a self-paced training course.

Recommended prerequisites for this training book are experience with databases, SQL, and programming.

This hands-on training book takes people through the basics of working with Cassandra as they learn how to install Cassandra, create a database, create tables, insert, update, and delete data, and create an application, as well as create and modify a multiple-node cluster.

Unit 1: Understanding What Cassandra is For
Unit 2: Getting Started with the Architecture
Unit 3: Installing Cassandra
Unit 4: Communicating with Cassandra
Unit 5: Creating a Database
Unit 6: Creating a Table
Unit 7: Inserting Data
Unit 8: Modeling Data
Unit 9: Creating an Application
Unit 10: Updating and Deleting Data
Unit 11: Selecting Hardware
Unit 12: Adding Nodes to a Cluster
Unit 13: Repairing Nodes
Unit 14: Removing a Node
Unit 15: Monitoring a Cluster
Unit 16: Adding a Data Center

As virtual machine images are used extensively throughout this hands-on course, including for the creation of a multiple-node Cassandra cluster, any computer used for the exercises in this course needs to be relatively high spec. Specifically, a computer with the following is needed:

64-bit operating system (Mac, Windows, or Linux)
8GB (or more) of RAM
30GB (or more) of free hard drive space
Latest version of VMware Player installed and working
A way to unzip files
Acrobat Reader (or equivalent, for viewing a PDF file)
