Using cassandra with nodejs-driver to store git, github, and social artifacts.

[sangheestyle]

We will use cassandra for storing git(not git repository, but git data), github, and social artifacts.
So, we might need to discuss about why we need it for this and how.

First step for this, we need to do the following

a. The data including information of each repo from github.searchRepos should be added into DB.
b. queryResult should filter data stored in DB (from a)

We will sprint this for Feb 19 Hackathon.

Need a sample of the JSON data you receive from Github and what data we need to store from that so that I can create the Cassandra schema.
