DATASTAX LAUNCHES TOOL TO MIGRATE LIVE DATA WITHOUT DOWNTIME

KUALA LUMPUR, April 1 (Bernama) -- DataStax recently announced general availability of a new tool to move workloads from self-managed Apache Cassandra™ instances to its fully managed serverless Cassandra offering, DataStax Astra, with no downtime.

According to a statement, the tool is named Zero-Downtime Cloud Migration.

The highly scalable Apache Cassandra open source database is often used for workloads that need to deliver massive amounts of data to users worldwide with extremely high reliability. 

As such, many Cassandra production applications are business critical, always on, and downtime is not an option.

With DataStax’s new migration tool, enterprises can easily migrate live production Cassandra or DataStax Enterprise workloads to the DataStax Astra database-as-a-service to quickly and easily take advantage of the cost savings and other benefits of fully-managed, serverless Cassandra.

One of the first companies to use DataStax's Zero-Downtime Migration tool was Liquid Analytics. In short order, the company has already realised performance gains.

The DataStax Zero-Downtime Migration tool is available for zero cost, and it comes with every DataStax Astra subscription.

To sign up to explore Astra with US$25 monthly in credits, go to https://astra.datastax.com/register. (US$1 = RM4.143)
