How Cassandra stores data?
Answer / Mayank Kumar Saxena
Cassandra uses a partitioning scheme to distribute data across multiple nodes in the cluster. Each piece of data is stored within a row, and rows are grouped into partitions based on a consistent hashing algorithm. The SSTable (Sortable, Searchable Table) format is used for storing data on disk.
