Workshop: Building a REST API with Cassandra using Python and Node
Event Information
About this event
REST API’s have been used for years to create easy to use and flexible application interfaces that don’t require verbose language or heavy objects to operate. In this 2 hour workshop we’ll combine the ease of REST with the power of Apache Cassandra and bring you through the process of creating a REST API for Cassandra using Python and NodeJS languages. Packed with fully online hands-on exercises you’ll be able to jump right in to level-up your game.
What we will cover?
- Basics of REST
- Basics of Cassandra Data Modeling
- Fork Code and Testing Connections
- Create Schema in Cassandra
- Run Importer / Test API
- Verifying Data via CQL
Why attend?
All attendees to this event will receive a FREE Cassandra Certification voucher, normally priced at $375.
This workshop will set you up for success for the certification, pointing you in the right direction to become Cassandra Certified - a great addition to any developers CV! As more and more enterprises deploy Cassandra, the demand for engineers skilled in the new database is increasing too. Skills shortages within data science remain a problem for a lot of organisations - set yourself apart and prove you know what you are doing when it comes to NoSQL databases.
