I'm pretty surprised about the difference in latency though, throughput as you say will be different due to number of nodes. For any given replication factor in Cassandra, overhead remains the pretty much the same irrespective of wheth

So their benchmark of Cassandra against BigTable doesn't even match their previous benchmark of Cassandra. http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2014/03/cassandra-hi... How did the latency for Cassandra on

By the same logic (and our hiring experiences), Australians are also cheap outside of Sydney and Melbourne.

This won't be a popular comment amongst my fellow Australians, but some of these points in the post don't ring true to me. Being a startup in Australia is hard, but being a startup is hard anywhere. I think there is a certain ment

Great idea although it doesn't appear to pick up the misuse of there, their and they're. I typed "I'm going to walk over their" and Nitpicker only told me that " I'm " is an informal contraction.

Same with cars, only the workaround is expensive or impossible. For example take a brand new Subaru wrx: US starts at $25,795 Australia starts at $44,377 In both cases the car needs to be imported and also falls under Australia's luxury ca

From the setup page http://hyperdex.org/performance/setup/ each YCSB workload was run with only 16 threads. I'm not too sure how MongoDB and HyperDex go with concurrent connections, but Cassandra performance with YCSB will be much better
