Cassandra has the Monopoly on ACID Transactions
ACID transactions with Accord in Cassandra are finally here! Join us for an interactive and entertaining webinar where we dive into the cutting-edge Accord transaction protocol, now powering ACID transactions in Cassandra. But this isn’t your typical webinar—we’ll bring these concepts to life with a live, real-time game of DataStaxOpoly, our tech twist on the classic board game.
Watch as each property purchase and rent payment becomes a real-world example of multi-partition, ACID-compliant financial transactions across a distributed system. We’ll showcase how Accord enables Cassandra to coordinate complex operations with strict serialization and high availability—without compromising the performance Cassandra is known for. Whether you're a developer or architect, this session will give you a memorable, practical understanding of distributed transactions.
What You’ll Learn:
- The fundamentals of Accord and how it brings ACID transactions to Apache Cassandra.
- Real-world use cases for distributed transactions—including financial systems.
- How transactions are modeled, committed, and validated across partitions and replicas.
- Why this is a game-changer (pun intended) for developers building critical systems on Cassandra.
