We need help to get official Django support for non-relational / NoSQL DBs. Currently, we only have an App Engine backend and a half-finished MongoDB backend. We have to demonstrate to the Django team that our approach works with a wider variety of DBs. If we achieve that goal Django would have a way to write portable code for a lot of DB types. We'd also have the foundation for much more powerful features like automatic denormalization. Please help us find backend contributors.
- rbanffy 17y agoI am decided to give Cassandra a shot. It will take some work to get up to speed, but you can count on me for that.
- joshfinnie 17y agoI know this if off-topic, but what is the best resource to learn Cassandra? I can't find anything good searching through Google.
- kingkilr 17y agoThere's a PDF from digg from a NoSQL meetup (NoSQL east I think) and it has a link to a document somewhere there wrote up on understanding the cassandra data model, it's pretty good. You'll have to google around for it though.
