3. Partition-tolerance: The system continues to work in spite of network partitions.

3. Choose the correct items for X, Y, and Z.


X is a free and open-source, distributed, wide column store, Y database management system designed to
handle large amounts of data across many commodity servers, providing high availability with no Z.
X- Apache Cassandra, Y- SQL, Z- single point of failure
X- Hbase, Y- NoSQL, Z- failure
X- Zookeeper, Y- NoSQL, Z- multiple failure
X- Apache Cassandra, Y- NoSQL, Z- single point of failure

Explanation:
Apache Cassandra is a free and open-source, distributed, wide
column store, NoSQL database management system designed to handle large
amounts of data across many commodity servers, providing high availability with no
single point of failure.

8. ______ is a memory cache to store the in memory copy of the data. It accumulates writes and provides
read for data which are not yet stored to disk.
Distributed Hash tables
Collection
SSTable
Memtable

Explanation:
Cassandra uses memtables as an in-memory cache to store incoming writes.
These are later stored to disk when they are flushed.

9. Consider the following statements:

Only statement 1 is true
Both statements are true
Both statements are false

Explanation:
The correct statements are:
Scale up: grow your cluster capacity by replacing with more powerful machines
