This month we are continuing the "Cassandra vs" theme of last month by taking a look at HBase.

In this talk, Tom Wilkie looks at Castle -- the core of the Acunu Data Platform, delivering up to 100x higher performance for applications written for Cassandra and other tools.

Skills Matter is hosting the first annual NOSQL eXchange this November, and we are working on a great day of learning and sharing of skills on NOSQL technologies including MongoDB, CouchDB, Cassandra, Riak, and Neo4J.

This month we are focusing on two things: Cassandra internals (some fundamental data structures and algorithms) and Cassandra Query Language (CQL, coming in version 0.8). Hopefully these topics will be of interest to seasoned Cassandra experts plus people with more of a general interest in distributed databases.
