Given the datastax donation I agree it makes sense for us to propose projects that are unlikely to overlap. What do people think about documentation that is slightly more instructional as opposed to informational?
Perhaps some kind of tutorial series on "Practical examples of building useful systems with Cassandra": * How to use Cassandra to store sensor data (maybe from a fictional IOT device). This could include data models, functioning Java/Python code running a HTTP service, and benchmarking examples. * How to use Cassandra as a global record store for storing strongly typed configuration for services. This could include architecture, data models, explore use of different consistency level, etc ... * How to safely use Cassandra's CRDT data models (or just LWT for low scale) to implement a state machine (aka locking) service. Or we could go the operations direction: * How to get a small test cluster running on Kubernetes (or in an ASG on AWS / azure / <insert favorite infrastructure platform>). This could include setup, scaling, repairing, monitoring, etc ... Or something along those lines...
