Our Verdict
Comprehensive but aging: This course offers a solid introduction to the fundamentals of Cassandra as a distributed database. Though some sections lack updates, the core content remains relevant for understanding cluster management, queries, and keyspaces. However, seek alternative resources on licensing, securing your setup, and running current versions of Cassandra.
