Case Study: SourceNinja achieves scalable, high-performance enterprise search and lower costs with DataStax Enterprise (DataStax)

SourceNinja - Customer Case Study

SourceNinja, a Sunnyvale startup that tracks hundreds of millions of open‑source software records, needed to scale beyond Postgres as it prepared to open its data to a wider audience. The company required a highly reliable, easily scalable NoSQL solution that could deliver high performance, flexible querying, and reduced development and operational overhead.

SourceNinja deployed DataStax Enterprise (Apache Cassandra with integrated Hadoop and Solr), gaining scalable enterprise search, flexible columnar schema, and faster, lower‑maintenance background processing. The move simplified code and operations, cut costs, improved query flexibility and performance, and positioned the team to pursue advanced analytics and machine‑learning use cases.
