Central Database | Cassandra support

Solved1.01K views3rd December 2021Cassandra central database

As systems get bigger and more complex, the amount of data that is gathered and offloaded to the central database keeps increasing.

Does dataminer have support for Cassandra as a Central DB? If not, are there any plans to do have it?

Hi Arturo,

DataMiner now supports a Cassandra cluster for the whole DataMiner system, instead of each DataMiner node having its own Cassandra node. This is although for storage of the DataMiner data, not for “offloading”. If you really need to offload data, you can now also offload to files, and then you can pick up those files and offload to any storage of your choice. There is currently nothing planned to natively support Cassandra for offloading as this is now possible via the files offload.

The question is also if you really need an “offload”. The only use case I see, is e.g. third party reporting or archiving… The offload is not intended to be used for a backup, and also not for pulling information from DataMiner as this can be done via the Web APIs and then a full offload is not needed.

Hi Bert, thanks for your answer.

I was asking because we need to analyze the data gathered from several Dataminer elements to aggregate some KPI in an EPM environment. This data doesn’t necessarily need to be analyzed inside the same EPM DMS and given the size I was wondering if this was an option.
