Hello, I have written with a few other people a paper for the ACM Symposium On Cloud Computing. This paper describes the methodology, infrastructure and configuration used as well as the results obtained for elasticity and scalability of three noSQL databases, of wich Cassandra. The paper can be downloaded here : http://www.nosqlbenchmarking.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/paper.pdf<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://www.nosqlbenchmarking.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/paper.pdf>
Any feedback on the methodology used would be appreciated, we would like to know if Cassandra is used in a "fair" way in those tests. If the paper is accepted, we will have additional time to correct eventual mistakes or to include developers feedback. Regards, Thibault Dory
