Data Modeling for Apache Cassandra
Data Modeling is the one of the first things to sink your teeth into when trying out a new database. That's why we are going to cover this foundational topic in enough detail for you to get dangerous. Data Modeling for relational databases is more than a touch different than the way it's approached with Cassandra. We will address the quintessential query-driven methodology through a couple of different use cases, including working with time series data for IoT. We will also demo a new tool to get you bootstrapped quickly with MovieLens sample data. This talk should give you the basics you need to get serious with Apache Cassandra.
Coursera Cassandra Driver
Hear about how Coursera uses Cassandra as the core of its scalable online education platform. I'll discuss the strengths of Cassandra that we leverage, as well as some limitations that you might run into as well in practice.
In the second part of this talk, we'll dive into how best to effectively use the Datastax Java drivers. We'll dig into how the driver is architected, and use this understanding to develop best practices to follow. I'll also share a couple of interesting bug we've run into at Coursera.

It lists community evangelists like Luke Tillman, Patrick McFadin, Jon Haddad, and Duy Hai Doan who can provide help and resources.
Cassandra @ Netflix: Monitoring C* at Scale, Gossip and Tickler & Python
This document summarizes three presentations from a Cassandra Meetup:
1. Jason Cacciatore discussed monitoring Cassandra health at scale across hundreds of clusters and thousands of nodes using the reactive stream processing system Mantis.
2. Minh Do explained how Cassandra uses the gossip protocol for tasks like discovering cluster topology and sharing load information. Gossip also has limitations and race conditions that can cause problems.
3. Chris Kalantzis presented Cassandra Tickler, an open source tool he created to help repair operations that get stuck by running lightweight consistency checks on an old Cassandra version or a node with space issues.
Cassandra @ Sony: The good, the bad, and the ugly part 1
This talk covers scaling Cassandra to a fast growing user base. Alex and Isaias will cover new best practices and how to work with the strengths and weaknesses of Cassandra at large scale. They will discuss how to adapt to bottlenecks while providing a rich feature set to the playstation community.
Cassandra @ Sony: The good, the bad, and the ugly part 2
The document discusses Cassandra's use by Sony Network Entertainment to handle the large amount of user and transaction data from the growing PlayStation Network. It describes how the relational database they previously used did not scale sufficiently, so they transitioned to using Cassandra in a denormalized and customized way. Some of the techniques discussed include caching user data locally on application servers, secondary indexing, and using a real-time indexer to enable personalized search by friends.
Standing Up Your First Cluster
This document provides guidance on setting up server monitoring, application metrics, log aggregation, time synchronization, replication strategies, and garbage collection for a Cassandra cluster. Key recommendations include:
1. Use monitoring tools like Monit, Munin, Nagios, or OpsCenter to monitor processes, disk usage, and system performance. Aggregate all logs centrally with tools like Splunk, Logstash, or Greylog.
2. Install NTP to synchronize server times which are critical for consistency.
3. Use the NetworkTopologyStrategy replication strategy and avoid SimpleStrategy for production.
4. Avoid shared storage and focus on low latency and high throughput using multiple local disks.
5. Understand
Real Time Analytics with Dse
This document discusses real time analytics using Spark and Spark Streaming. It provides an introduction to Spark and highlights limitations of Hadoop for real-time analytics. It then describes Spark's advantages like in-memory processing and rich APIs. The document discusses Spark Streaming and the Spark Cassandra Connector. It also introduces DataStax Enterprise which integrates Spark, Cassandra and Solr to allow real-time analytics without separate clusters. Examples of streaming use cases and demos are provided.
Introduction to Data Modeling with Apache Cassandra
This document provides an introduction to data modeling with Apache Cassandra. It discusses how Cassandra data models are designed based on the queries an application will perform, unlike relational databases which are designed based on normalization rules. Key aspects covered include avoiding joins by denormalizing data, using a partition key to group related data on nodes, and controlling the clustering order of columns. The document provides examples of modeling time series and tag data in Cassandra.
Cassandra Core Concepts
The document discusses different data storage options for small, medium, and large datasets. It argues that relational databases do not scale well for large datasets due to limitations with replication, normalization, sharding, and high availability. The document then introduces Apache Cassandra as a fast, distributed, highly available, and linearly scalable database that addresses these limitations through its use of a hash ring architecture and tunable consistency levels. It describes Cassandra's key features including replication, compaction, and multi-datacenter support.
Enabling Search in your Cassandra Application with DataStax Enterprise
This document provides an overview of using Datastax Enterprise (DSE) Search to enable full-text search capabilities in Cassandra applications. It discusses how DSE Search integrates Solr/Lucene indexing with the Cassandra database to allow searching of application data without requiring a separate search cluster, external ETL processes, or custom application code for data management. The document also includes examples of different types of searches that can be performed, such as filtering, faceting, geospatial searches, and joins. It concludes with basic steps for getting started with DSE Search such as creating a Solr core and executing search queries using CQL.
Bad Habits Die Hard
The document discusses common bad habits that can occur when working with Apache Cassandra and provides recommendations to avoid them. Specifically, it addresses issues like sliding back into a relational mindset when the data model is different, improperly benchmarking Cassandra systems, having slow client performance, and neglecting important operations tasks. The presentation provides guidance on how to approach data modeling, querying, benchmarking, driver usage, and operations management in a Cassandra-oriented way.
Advanced Data Modeling with Apache Cassandra
This document provides an overview and examples of modeling data in Apache Cassandra. It begins with an introduction to thinking about data models and queries before modeling, and emphasizes that Cassandra requires modeling around queries due to its limitations on joins and indexes. The document then provides examples of modeling user, video, and other entity data for a video sharing application to support common queries. It also discusses techniques for handling queries that could become hotspots, such as bucketing or adding random values. The examples illustrate best practices for data duplication, materialized views, and time series data storage in Cassandra.
Advanced Cassandra
The document discusses best practices for using Apache Cassandra, including:
- Topology considerations like replication strategies and snitches
- Booting new datacenters and replacing nodes
- Security techniques like authentication, authorization, and SSL encryption
- Using prepared statements for efficiency
- Asynchronous execution for request pipelining

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.Recently uploaded (20)
