Unboxing K8ssandra: The Data Layer For Your Kubernetes-Powered Applications
February 01, 2022Author(s)
A Complimentary Live Webinar, Sponsored by DataStax
Kubernetes made it easy to deploy and scale out your cloud-native applications. With K8ssandra, you can now scale application data with the same simplicity and high availability. Join us as we unbox K8ssandra a cloud native data layer for Kubernetes and explore how you can deploy it alongside your applications.
- Install k8ssandra
- Authenticate with Stargate
- Query your data via a convenient API (REST, document, or graphql)
Not familiar with Cassandra? Astra DB is a great (free) place to learn without any of the infrastructure setup, or management headaches.
