Fitting the Model • Sean Treadway • GOTO 2012

This presentation was recorded at GOTO Aarhus 2012 http://gotocon.com Sean Treadway - Engineer at SoundCloud ABSTRACT Cassandra's storage models has both strengths and weaknesses. We'll discuss how SoundCloud takes advantage of the strengths of Cassandra's Memtable/SSTable storage layer as the backend for our activity stream and how understanding what your database does on disk is as important as understanding the data model you're persisting. https://twitter.com/gotocon https://www.facebook.com/GOTOConference http://gotocon.com
