Does anyone know what Apple uses Cassandra for?


IIRC everything in iCloud is stored in Cassandra and is one of the bigger clusters around.


iPhone notifications, as far as I know.


Apple uses Riak for this.


Not sure why this was downvoted. This was the story out of Basho last I heard. (Well, lot's of hints like "Some fruit company you may have heard of uses it like this").

Perhaps this is now out of date?


Yup. Out of date.
