The Apache Cassandra® Control Plane

Monitor, investigate, backup/restore, and maintain in one platform, without vendor lock-in.

Why your data layer needs a control plane

Apache Cassandra is designed for availability and linear scalability. It handles the hard problems at the data layer so your applications can grow without limits. But operating Cassandra well means coordinating repairs, backups, rolling restarts, schema changes, and capacity decisions across clusters that may span regions and teams. Without a dedicated control plane, that coordination fragments across scripts, runbooks, and tribal knowledge. AxonOps provides the unified operational surface for observability, maintenance automation, and governance, so your team can focus on what Cassandra does best rather than managing the tooling around it.

For Developers

Spend less time chasing cluster issues and more time building. Get instant visibility into query performance, schema health, and node status without switching between tools.

For Operators

Automate repairs, schedule backups, and respond to incidents from a single pane. AxonOps gives SRE and DBA teams the operational controls to run Cassandra at scale with confidence.

Observe

Simplify Apache Cassandra visibility

Give operators one Cassandra-native surface for health, performance, logs, and service checks.

  • High-resolution Cassandra and infrastructure metrics
  • Correlated metrics and logs in one workflow
  • Service checks for nodes, ports, and system health
  • Granular alert routing across metrics, logs, backups, repairs, and all operations
Protect

Backup and recovery that meets enterprise standards

Treat recovery as an operational workflow, not a one-off script. Policy-driven backup, full backup history, snapshot restore, and point-in-time recovery in one platform, configured in seconds for higher recovery confidence.

  • Set up backup and restore workflows in seconds
  • Policy-driven backup scheduling with full execution history
  • Snapshot and point-in-time restore
  • High confidence recovery readiness for enterprise RPO and RTO targets
Repair

The most advanced repair system for Apache Cassandra

Adaptive and scheduled repair that maintains data consistency without impacting query performance. Repair velocity is continuously recalibrated based on cluster load and gc_grace_seconds.

  • Adaptive Repair runs slowly by design, keeping query performance unaffected
  • Repair velocity regulated by cluster load with gc_grace_seconds awareness
  • Scheduled repair with cron-based execution and configurable parallelism
  • Full repair history and intelligent failure alerting
Operate

Automate Cassandra maintenance safely

Use adaptive repair and controlled maintenance flows to reduce operational risk and repetitive toil.

  • Adaptive repair aligned to cluster load
  • Nodetool scheduler for automated command execution
  • Rolling restart support for safer changes
  • Full audit log of every operational action across clusters
Open

Stay on open Apache Cassandra, avoid lock-in

Keep full control over architecture and operations while integrating with your existing stack.

  • Built for Apache Cassandra operations
  • Portable operating model
  • Manage Cassandra across AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premises, Kubernetes, and hybrid environments
  • Works with existing alerting and incident tooling
Stay on open Apache Cassandra, avoid lock-in
Operational Impact

Measurable outcomes for Cassandra teams

Faster incident detection and diagnosis

High-resolution metrics and correlated logs surface issues in seconds, cutting mean time to detect and resolve.

Higher confidence in recovery readiness

Policy-driven backups with execution history and point-in-time restore so you know recovery works before you need it.

Lower repetitive maintenance overhead

Adaptive repair, nodetool scheduling, and rolling restarts run on autopilot, freeing teams from manual toil.

Consistent operations across DBA and SRE teams

One shared platform with the same dashboards, alerts, and operational workflows for every team member.
