Cassandra at MetricsHub for Cloud Monitoring
Charles Lamanna (CEO MetricsHub):
We use Cassandra for recording time series information (e.g. metrics) as well as special events (e.g. server failure) for our customers. We have a multi-tenant Cassandra cluster for this. We record over 16 data points per server per second, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We use Cassandra to store and crunch this data.
Many of the NoSQL databases can be used for monitoring. For example for small scale self-monitoring you could use Redis.
