Cassandra

Cassandra is a free and open-source, distributed, wide-column store, NoSQL database management system designed to handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers, providing high availability with no single point of failure.

Getting Started

# In `perSystem.process-compose.<name>`
{
  services.cassandra."cass1".enable = true;
}

Tips & Tricks

Change the default port

By default, the Cassandra server is started on port 9042. To change the port, we can use the following config:

{
  services.cassandra."cass1" = {
    enable = true;
    nativeTransportPort = 9043;
  };
}
