Is there any robust way of implementing Cassandra back end to a web application developed using Django web framework?

http://github.com/twissandra/twissandra is a django app with a Cassandra backend. It uses https://github.com/datastax/python-driver to talk to Cassandra.

There is new Cassandra engine (based on cqlengine) for Django - https://github.com/r4fek/django-cassandra-engine

  • This project works very well. The naming is unfortunate, since it's very close to the (long abandoned) `django_cassandra_backend`.. – user1496984 May 08 '15 at 06:24

There now is a prototype Cassandra backend for Django available here: http://github.com/vaterlaus/django_cassandra_backend
