Tuning Cassandra | DataStax Cassandra 0.8 Documentation
Effective tuning depends not only on the types of operations your cluster performs most frequently, but also on the shape of the data itself.
More and more instrumentation is being added to Cassandra via standard JMX apis. The nodetool utility ( nodeprobe in versions prior to 0.6) provides a simple command line interface to these exposed operations and attributes. See Operations for a more high-level view of when you would want to use the actions described here.
NodeTool - Cassandra Wiki
I was looking at Cassandra , one of the major NoSQL solutions, and I was immediately impressed with its write speed even on my notebook. But I also noticed that it was very volatile in its response time, so I took a deeper look at it. First Cassandra Write Test I did the first write tests on my local machine, but I had a goal in mind. I wanted to see how fast I could insert 150K data points each consisting of 3 values.
Cassandra Write Performance – A quick look inside Application Performance
Linux performance basics
I want to write about Cassandra performance tuning, but first I need to cover some basics: how to use vmstat, iostat, and top to understand what part of your system is the bottleneck -- not just for Cassandra but for any system.Sometimes, data comes with an expiration date, either by its nature or because it’s simply intractable to keep all of a rapidly growing dataset indefinitely.
