We use this same setup also and it works great. Thunder ----- Reply message ----- From: "Laing, Michael" <michael.la...@nytimes.com> To: <user@cassandra.apache.org> Subject: Queuing System Date: Sat, Feb 22, 2014 7:31 AM
We use RabbitMQ for queuing and Cassandra for persistence. RabbitMQ with clustering and/or federation should meet your high availability needs.

For that I need a queuing system with the following needs, High AvailabilityNo Data LossBetter Performance. Following are some libraries that were considered along with the limitation I see, Redis - Data LossZooKeeper - Not advised for Queue system.TokyoCabinet/SQLite/LevelDB - of this Level DB seem to be performing better. With replication requirement, I probably have to look at Apache ActiveMQ+LevelDB. After checking on the third option above, I kind of wonder if Cassandra with Leveled Compaction offer a similar system. Do you see any issues in such a usage or is there other better solutions available. Will be great to get insights on this. Regards, Jagan
