An excellent high-level view, providing direction and guidance for relative newcomers to Cassandra. My background is 10 years with relation Db's, covering SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase, cubes, data marts, etc., and this pointed out the mistakes that can be made by someone with a relational Db background. It's an easy read, well-written and high-level, with enough code to make the point, but not so much that reading becomes drudgery.
