Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Cassandra NoSQL Database - Peer-to-Peer Distributed Wid

The video tutorial introduces Apache Cassandra, a highly scalable and distributed NoSQL database known for its high availability and fault tolerance. It explains Cassandra's architecture, highlighting its masterless, peer-to-peer design that ensures no single point of failure. The tutorial covers data sharding and partitioning, emphasizing the use of partition keys and hash functions for efficient data distribution. It also discusses the CAP theorem, explaining the trade-offs between availability and consistency, and how Cassandra embraces eventual consistency to optimize performance in distributed systems.
