Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra) is a scalable, highly available, and managed Apache Cassandra–compatible database service. With Amazon Keyspaces, you can run your Cassandra workloads on AWS by using the same Cassandra Query Language (CQL) code, Apache 2.0–licensed drivers, and tools that you use today. Amazon Keyspaces uses a modified version of Apache Cassandra. We have modified the Apache Cassandra code to allow us to run it as a managed, serverless offering. You don’t have to provision, patch, or manage servers, and you don’t have to install, maintain, or operate software. Tables can scale up and down automatically, and you pay for only the resources you use.
