This course provides a hands-on introduction to the fundamentals of Cassandra, a highly scalable, distributed NoSQL database designed for high availability and performance. Through a combination of short videos and hands-on labs, you'll learn key concepts such as data modeling, CQL, partitioning, replication, and the read/write path. Whether you're a developer, operator, or architect, this course will help you build the skills needed to work confidently with Cassandra in real-world applications.

This course is part of both the Developer and Operator learning tracks and is designed to help you prepare for the Certified Cassandra 5 Operator and Developer exams.
