Apache Cassandra / The Apache Cassandra Corner

Multiple "Aaron" alert! Listen in as Aaron sits down with Aaron Morton to talk about his upcoming talk at the Cassandra Summit in December. They also discussed Aaron's work with the Mongoose project, and improving the Cassandra developer experience with a JSON API that includes Vector Search!

In this episode, Aaron catches up with Loren Sands-Ramshaw of Temporal. In it they talk about durable execution, Loren's book on GraphQL, getting through system design interviews, and his upcoming talk at Cassandra Forward. Also, this is the first episode that we're trying out a video podcast format.

For this episode, I sat down with Mary Grygleski of DataStax. Mary is a Developer Advocate on the Astra Streaming team, evangelizing for and helping folks with Apache Pulsar®. She has a long history as both an advocate and an engineer in tech, organizes the Chicago Java Users' Group (CJUG), and has been recognized as a Java Champion. Listen in and hear how we discussed Java, Apache Cassandra®, Pulsar, and Mary's talk for the upcoming Cassandra Summit.

For this episode, Aaron catches up with Otavio Santana, one of our guests from the first season. They discussed Otavio's new book "Persistence Best Practices for Java Applications" which was just released on Aug 25th. Listen in as Aaron and Otavio discuss how Cassandra fits into the landscape of Java application persistence, the role that cloud native tech plays, as well as practices for building good DTOs in Java.

In this episode, Aaron catches up with Rahul Singh of Anant Corporation. They had a great discussion about how Rahul started Anant, as well as some of the challenges of working with Cassandra (and other "big data" tech) in the C#/.Net world. Additionally, they go on to discuss how Anant's "Cassandra Lunches" (on YouTube) came about, as well as ways to help newer folks learn the Cassandra ecosystem.

Mongoose with Apache Cassandra®?!?!?! Yes, you heard that correctly. Listen in as I talk with Val Karpov (lead maintainer of the Mongoose project), as we discuss this exciting addition to the Cassandra developer ecosystem. Building JavaScript applications with Apache Cassandra® just got a whole lot easier!
