DSE an acceptible product with high maintenance overhead

  • November 01, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The all in one integration between Cassandra, Solr, and Spark makes it simple to use together. Once installed, configuring them for basic out of the box functionality is completed by just enabling each one in a file. Once you get into the Ops Center and maintaining a production cluster, it starts to get more complicated. However, the DataStax academy provides the information needed to start more advanced configurations and implementations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maintaining a production cluster is very time consuming, requiring a full time resource just to manage this application for a larger system. The cloud resources needed to support this are pretty large. It's almost a wash compared to cloud native services. Beyond the generic training videos and programs, the extended support and training is a lot of extra effort to get spun up and covered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DataStax Enterprise solution provides a great backend data layer to our microservices in the cloud. Inventory search and the speed at which results are returned means this can be used for bot functions and other AI capabilities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have the experience on staff to support this application moving forward. Without at least one experienced resource who has some combination of NoSQL solutions, search understanding, and basic AI capabilities, you will likely have to train a resource 6-8 months just to be comfortable with the product.

What do you like best about the product?
Datastax offers so much as a managed Cassandra platform, and they've emerged as the primarily leader in this space. The training materials and documentation alone are awesome contributions. Datastax has contributed so much to the open source tooling, and their technical blog rocks. Datastax Enterprise is really what you're looking for and should really consider when starting up a cloud app with Cassandra. The integrations with Spark, Opscenter, and Hadoop are what makes Datastax Enterprise worth it, not to mention the service level.
What do you dislike about the product?
I compare Datastax to Cloudera, and there's so much more that they can be doing in terms of educational materials.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were looking to build scalable, client-facing APIs, and Cassandra worked well in our implementation. Datastax really completed the picture.
