Stargate is an ORM and service layer for Apache Cassandra and DataStax Enterprise. Given a logical data model of entities, relationships, and queries Stargate will generate the appropriate data model in Apache Cassandra or DataStax Enterprise.
- No CQL required. Work directly with a RESTful, microservice-friendly API.
- Allows you to stay focused on building your app and its queries, rather than how you want Cassandra to store your data.
- Stargate is fully Cloud Native which means you can easily run Stargate on EKS, GCE, or your own local Kubernetes cluster. However, you don’t need Kubernetes to run Stargate.
- Relax: Think about how you want to query your data, rather than how you want to store it.
- Low Code: Get a well tuned and optimized http REST endpoint and driver with no code
People that need to ship now and ship fast. Such as:
- Front end developers building something that needs to scale
- Small consulting shops trying to deliver to several customers on a deadline
- New to NoSQL user just trying to make sense of it all
Ready to give it a try?
- Cloud native. Scale-out and in with workload demand. Be highly available and resilient to failure. Have quick response times across all channels.
- It just works. You give us a logical data model and Stargate gives you a deployable microservice. Stargate handles the database and schema.
- CRUD made easy. Stargate exposes a fully featured CRUD API. Create, update, and delete records in cassandra with ease.
- Advanced Cassandra support. Trust that your database can scale out horizontally to meet increasing workload demand.
Ok now you're sold, go download the binaries for Linux and Windows here and for Mac we suggest using homebrew
brew tap foundev/stargate
brew install stargateWe provide a basic references for the things you may want to enable in production here
Requirements:
- OpenJDK 11
- Apache Maven
- Docker if you want to build the image.
- Apache Cassandra 3.11 or DSE 6.8
Run the following:
git clone [email protected]:datastax/stargate
mvn compile test
mvn exec:java #with DSE or Apache Cassandra running in the backgroundIf all this is working satisfactory you are ready to develop new features for Stargate.
Changing the stargate logger from INFO to TRACE will give a per
request headers and output, not appropriate to run very long in production
but should be fine in a dev context.
See the following example:
<logger name="stargate" level="info" additivity="false">to
<logger name="stargate" level="trace" additivity="false">
