Highly Scalable Network Management Solution Using Cassandra

Abstract

With the current emphasis on Big Data, NOSQL databases have surged in popularity. These databases are claimed to perform better than SQL databases. The traditional database is designed for the structured data and the complex query. In the environment of the cloud, the scale of data is very large, the data is non-structured, the request of the data is dynamic, these characteristics raise new challenges for the data storage and administration, in this context, the NOSQL database comes into picture. This paper discusses about some non-structured databases. It also shows how Cassandra is used to improve the scalability of the network compared to RDBMS.
