Case Study: BlackBerry achieves scalable, secure IoT platform with Instaclustr and Apache Cassandra

Apache Cassandra® Provides Scale and Reliability for Blackberry’s Iot Platform

BlackBerry, the global enterprise behind industrial software and mobile device management, needed a secure, scalable, and efficient core IoT platform to support connected devices and data-intensive applications like BlackBerry Radar. To meet those needs, BlackBerry used Apache Cassandra® as the NoSQL database foundation for its IoT platform, with Instaclustr supporting the managed database environment.

Instaclustr delivered a managed Apache Cassandra solution that provided the performance, reliability, and security BlackBerry required for its IoT platform. The result was a stable data layer across 2 clusters and 9 nodes, enabling BlackBerry’s engineering team to focus on new features and customer value while Instaclustr handled operations and support.
