Despite all the benefits of this NoSQL database as a stand-alone solution, it may be largely improved when implemented together with the Cloud Foundry platform. In particular, Cassandra as a service (C*aaS) would guarantee consistent deployments among several environments (development, staging, and production) without misconfiguration risks that could explode in production.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/cassandra-on-cloud-foundry-renat-khasanshyn-cornelia-davis-service-overview.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/cassandra-on-cloud-foundry-renat-khasanshyn-cornelia-davis-service-overview-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44353\" \/><\/a><small>A high-level architecture of the Cassandra service<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n<p>According to Renat, the greatest advantage for developers is that they don\u2019t have to bother about scalability and high availability. Development productivity is higher in this case, since developers don\u2019t need to set up servers by themselves. They can add more instances of Cassandra by simply entering the <code style=\"color: black; background-color: #e6e6e6;\">$ cf bind service<\/code> command in the CLI.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cInstead of waiting, you can just deploy. The main point of why use Cloud Foundry for developers is to separate the notion of developing an application and deploying \/ scaling it.\u201d \u2014Renat Khasanshyn, Altoros<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>C*aaS is easy to scale both horizontally and vertically, as with the BOSH tool chain you can quickly add new nodes, while without this scalability is delivered on the app-by-app basis. C*aaS can manage different configurations (Service Plans) depending on your needs. If you\u2019ve made bad sizing decision, you can reconfigure your app to use a bigger\/smaller service plan.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/cassandra-on-cloud-foundry-renat-khasanshyn-cornelia-davis-binding-to-the-service.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/cassandra-on-cloud-foundry-renat-khasanshyn-cornelia-davis-binding-to-the-service-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44400\" \/><\/a><small>Binding an app to the Cassandra service on CF<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n<p>As far as APIs are concerned, Cloud Foundry provides RESTful APIs, while Cassandra as a stand-alone scenario cannot boast of any APIs. In addition, a Cloud Foundry service is tested and stable, so it may be provisioned within minutes as opposed to days and weeks in case of a stand-alone database.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCloud Foundry is a collection of smaller projects, each responsible for a certain portion of this whole big picture. Put together, it delivers a middleware abstraction layer&#8230;By abstracting infrastructure and the developer console, we can achieve significant benefits.\u201d \u2014Renat Khasanshyn, Altoros<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>C*aaS can also help to avoid the vendor lock-in: when a developer has built and deployed an app on AWS using Cloud Foundry services, it still remains easy to shift it to another public or private cloud.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_it_works\"><\/span>How it works<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The service will be aware of provisioning capacity, status, availability, servers where Cassandra runs, etc. It is possible to create as many Cassandra nodes as needed.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/c-summit-2013-cassandra-as-a-service-on-cloud-foundry-by-renat-khasanshyn-and-cornelia-davis.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altoros.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/c-summit-2013-cassandra-as-a-service-on-cloud-foundry-by-renat-khasanshyn-and-cornelia-davis-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-44257\" \/><\/a><small>A three-node Cassandra cluster managed with BOSH<\/small><\/center><\/p>\n<p>When one deploys an app to Cloud Foundry, s\/he simply binds to that Cassandra deployment via a service gateway.

Cornelia updated the deployment manifest, and BOSH then took these new configurations, summarizing the differences made (the number of VMs \/ instances and IP addresses).<\/p>\n<p>All the communication between Cassandra&#8217;s gateway and the nodes was done via the NATS asynchronous messaging system.
