Network
Cassandra, like any other distributed system, has network as one of the important aspects
that can vary performance. Cassandra needs to make calls across networks for both read
and write. A slow network, thus, can be a bottleneck for the performance. It is suggested to
use a gigabit network and redundant network interfaces. In a system with more than one
network interface, it is recommended to bind
listen_address
for clients (Thrift) to
one network interface card and
rpc_address
to another.
