Where are we now?
Pt. 1 - Transition from Oracle to Cassandra How does it work? What are the differences?
Pt. 2 - Cassandra Data Model All the details on how to use Cassandra Query Language (CQL)
Pt. 3 - Building a Cassandra Application Wrap it all up with a top down application design. Combining everything we’ve learned plus a more.
