DataStax and Intel have established a collaborative partnership to enhance technology performance.

DataStax’s collaboration with Intel revolves around the most recent Intel Xeon Scalable processors, the open-source Cassandra database and Apache Pulsar streaming technologies. The companies want to make improvements to every project and provide cloud solutions based on the open-source programs.

DataStax was chosen for the Intel Disruptor Initiative, where Intel collaborates with cutting-edge businesses to redefine innovation. Mick Semb Wever, Apache Cassandra solutions architect at DataStax, said that the company is “excited to work with Intel on optimizing the performance of both Cassandra and Pulsar-based services on Intel’s powerful technologies”.

Apache Cassandra, used among brands such as Apple, Walmart, Netflix, and hundreds of others, allows organizations to process and manage huge amounts of data for users worldwide. Cassandra is rapidly evolving with upcoming functionalities like support for ACID transactions. Intel and DataStax have made significant contributions to the open-source project.
