Azul Launches Consulting Services to Help Enterprises Optimize Apache Cassandra Deployments - Seite 2

"We are seeing strong interest in the Apache Cassandra NoSQL database, particularly for applications that require a combination of low-latency performance and a highly available, distributed architecture," commented Matt Aslett, research director, data platforms and analytics, 451 Research. "Garbage collection issues can hit any Java deployment, but are particularly significant where low-latency performance is a requirement. With Azul's new Cassandra HealthCheck offering, Cassandra users can leverage the company's JVM and performance tuning expertise, allowing for more consistent and reliable deployments while focusing their attention on the application itself rather than spending time trying to tune away JVM issues."

"Many users do not understand the negative impact a Java runtime can have on Cassandra response time, reliability, and throughput," said Scott Sellers, CEO and President of Azul Systems. "With Azul's Cassandra HealthCheck service offering, our specialists can quickly show enterprises how to maximize the value of their Cassandra investment and eliminate many of the performance and reliability challenges facing Cassandra deployments today. Better Cassandra deployments ultimately means better business performance."

Cassandra HealthCheck is available immediately worldwide. Azul supports Cassandra deployments using Apache-based distributions as well as those based upon Datastax Enterprise or Datastax Community Edition. Pricing is available upon request. For more information, visit www.azul.com/Cassandra.
