Hi everyone, Several open source projects conduct regular user surveys to understand current usage and adoption trends, e.g. OpenStack, Kubernetes, Cloud Foundry, etc. They can be informative to the community and other end users. It looks like the C* community may have conducted these in the past per https://twitter.com/cassandra/status/649287871577219072.
Recently, an independent research company called Clearpath Strategies was funded by DataStax to conduct research on C* usage and adoption, and they would like to contribute the findings to the community. 901 practitioners were interviewed. I analyzed the data and summarized in a document here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aM8muvbldPhSJdgrsM0OiLGvb5wfjwc5uutSCNfGup8/edit?usp=sharing If this seems broadly useful, I’m proposing that we publish to the C* blog. New graphics will be created in the same styling as the 4.0 graphic as noted in the doc. If you have questions about the data, please share here or in the doc. Appreciate your thoughts and consideration. Melissa
