What is this project?

This project provides Datastax Cassandra and Opscenter in containers.

Why I started this project?

• The common ubuntu base image is not adequate. Phusion base image is used instead.
• Oracle JRE is used instead of OpenJDK JRE.
• Package Cassandra and Opscenter agent in the same container for easy deployment.
• Data persistence (if a container dies, the data will not be lost and can be taken up by a new container).
• Possible Kubernetes integration to create cluster of Cassandra.
