"Cassandra The definitive Guide - Eben Hewitt - O'REILLY" 《Cassandra:权威指南》是由Eben Hewitt编著的一本全面深入介绍Cassandra分布式数据库系统的书籍。Cassandra是一款高度可扩展、分布式NoSQL数据库,最初由Facebook开发,现已成为Apache软件基金会的顶级项目,广泛应用于大规模数据存储和实时查询场景。 本书涵盖了Cassandra的核心概念和技术,旨在帮助读者理解和掌握如何设计、部署和管理Cassandra集群。以下是一些主要的知识点: 1. **NoSQL和Cassandra**:书中首先介绍了NoSQL数据库的基本理念,对比了关系型数据库与NoSQL数据库的优缺点,然后详细阐述了Cassandra的设计哲学,包括一致性、可用性和分区容错性(CAP定理)的权衡。 2. **Cassandra的数据模型**:讲解了Cassandra的数据模型,包括列族、超级列、列的概念,以及时间戳和版本控制的机制,帮助读者理解如何有效地存储和查询非结构化数据。 3. **分布式架构**:深入解析Cassandra的分布式特性,如数据复制、一致性策略(如Quorum和Leveled Consistency)、故障恢复和节点扩展,这些都是构建高可用系统的关键。 4. **Gossip协议**:详细介绍了Cassandra中的Gossip协议,它是节点间通信和状态传播的核心机制,确保了集群的自我修复和自动发现能力。 5. **CQL(Cassandra查询语言)**:讲解了CQL的语法和使用,它是Cassandra提供的一种简化数据操作的SQL-like接口,使得开发者更容易上手。 6. **读写流程**:解释了Cassandra的读写过程,包括读修复、TTL(Time To Live)机制、以及Memtable和SSTable的存储结构。 7. **索引和查询优化**:讨论了Cassandra的索引实现,以及如何设计数据模式以优化查询性能。 8. **运维与监控**:涵盖了Cassandra的日常运维,如性能调优、监控工具(如Nodetool和OpsCenter)的使用,以及故障排查技巧。 9. **安全与备份**:讲解了Cassandra的安全配置,包括认证、授权和加密,以及数据备份和恢复策略。 10. **高级主题**:涵盖了更复杂的用例,如多数据中心部署、DSE(DataStax Enterprise)的特性和使用,以及Cassandra与其他技术(如Hadoop、Spark)的集成。 此书适合对分布式系统有基础了解,并希望深入了解或实施Cassandra的开发人员、系统管理员和架构师阅读。通过学习,读者可以具备设计和管理大规模Cassandra集群的能力,应对大数据时代的挑战。

Developers who have done integration work know what a difficult task it can be. IT sys- tems may not have been designed to be accessible from other systems, and if they were designed for interoperability, they may not speak the protocol you need. As a devel- oper, you end up spending a considerable amount of time working with the plumbing of the integration protocols to open up the IT systems to the outside world. In Enterprise Integration Patterns, Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf gave us a standard way to describe, document, and implement complex integration problems. Develop- ers and architects alike can use this common language and catalog of solutions to tackle their integration problems. But although Hohpe and Woolf gave us the theory, the industry still needed an open source implementation of the book. James Strachan, Rob Davies, Guillaume Nodet, and Hiram Chirino, within the open source communities of Apache Active MQ and Apache ServiceMix, brought the idea of Camel to life. Apache Camel is essentially an implementation of the EIP book, and in the summer of 2007 version 1.0 was released. Apache Camel is an integration framework whose main goal is to make integration easier. It implements many of the EIP patterns and allows you to focus on solving busi- ness problems, freeing you from the burden of plumbing. Using connectivity compo- nents has never been easier, because you don’t have to implement JMS message listeners or FTP clients, deal with converting data between protocols, or mess with the raw details of HTTP requests. All of this is taken care of by Camel, which makes media- tion and routing as easy as writing a few lines of Java code or XML in a Spring XML file. Apache Camel has since become very popular and today has an ever-growing com- munity. As with many open source projects that become popular, a logical next step is for someone to write a book about the project. Hadrian Zbarcea, the Project Manage- ment Committee chair of the Apache Camel project, realized this, and in early 2009 he contacted Manning to discuss the need for such a book. Hadrian got in touch with me (Claus Ibsen), inviting me in as a coauthor. It was perfect timing, as I was taking over from James Strachan as the lead on Apache Camel. Later that year, Hadrian had to step down as an author, but he invited Jonathan Anstey in as his replacement, to ensure the project could continue. Jonathan and I are both integration specialists working for FuseSource, which is the professional company that offers enterprise services around various Apache proj- ects. This book is written by the people who wrote the Camel code, which ensures you have the most updated Camel book on the market. Writing this book has been a very intense journey, proven by the fact that we were able to complete the manuscript in a year. It took a long time to implement the exam- ples and to ensure that the accompanying source code is of the highest standard. But the result is a great source of examples that should inspire you to get the best out of Camel, and it should be a good starting point for your Camel projects. While we were writing this book, we were also implementing new features in Camel, which often meant we had to go back and revise the material along the way. But we have kept up, and this book uses the latest Camel release at the time of writing (Camel 2.5). We hope this book brings great value to you and helps you prosper in the Camel community.
