Datastax - Cassandra Kubernetes Operator
A Kubernetes operator for automating deployment, scaling, and management of Apache Cassandra clusters on Kubernetes.
What is Datastax - Cassandra Kubernetes Operator?
Cass Operator is a Kubernetes operator designed specifically for Apache Cassandra. It automates the deployment, scaling, and day-to-day operations of Cassandra clusters running on Kubernetes, treating Cassandra as a native Kubernetes workload. It solves the problem of manually managing complex distributed database operations by providing a declarative API through Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs).
DevOps engineers, SREs, and platform teams who manage Apache Cassandra deployments in Kubernetes environments. It's also valuable for developers building cloud-native applications that require scalable, managed Cassandra instances.
Developers choose Cass Operator because it reduces the operational complexity of running Cassandra on Kubernetes, provides production-ready secure defaults, and integrates seamlessly with Kubernetes tooling like Helm. Its declarative approach ensures consistent cluster states and automates error-prone tasks like node replacement and scaling.
