CSC301 (Cassandra Studies Course) – Paxos, Tuples and User Defined Types

This is a continuation in a series of lectures on Cassandra, this particular one based on features that are less widely used.  Following this series, I will be hosting a hands-on data modelling class sometime in late June or early July.

Schedule:
6:30 – 6:45pm: get settled into Brightlane, grab some food
6:45 – 7:30pm: dive into Paxos (light weight transactions), Tuples and User Defined Types
7:30 – 7:45pm: Q&A
7:45 – 8:15pm: networking

Get ready for this as Cassandra Day #TORONTO is coming in October and we will issue a call for speakers.
