Summary

The High Performance NoSQL Masterclass, hosted by ScyllaDB and Pythian, focuses on the decision-making factors for selecting NoSQL databases, particularly advocating for wide column NoSQL databases like Apache Cassandra and ScyllaDB. The sessions explore various NoSQL models, emphasizing the advantages of wide column databases for scalability and high performance applications. Allan Mason's segment guides attendees on effectively modeling data and queries using Cassandra Query Language (CQL) with a query-first design approach, contrasting it with traditional schema-first SQL design. Felipe Cardeneti Mendes discusses scaling strategies, workload prioritization, and deployment considerations to enhance performance for different use cases. The Masterclass format combines expert video presentations, interactive panel discussions, and a test to ensure engagement and comprehension, with the entire event available on demand for those who could not attend live.
