Congratulations! You are almost halfway through this journey. You are at the point where it is necessary to meet the component responsible for information persistence; the sometimes neglected “data layer” will take on a new dimension when you have finished this chapter. It’s time to meet Apache Cassandra, a NoSQL database that provides high availability and scalability without compromising performance.
