Astra DB

The Modern, Multi-Cloud DBaaS Built on Apache Cassandra®

Eliminate operational overhead and lower TCO while building with an intuitive Data API and vector search for generative AI applications.

Less Complexity, Lower TCO, More Innovation

Secure, Scalable, Compliant, and 5x Cheaper

Scale to petabytes of data for the most demanding applications, with world-class performance at a fraction of the cost. A modern Data API, Storage Attached Indexing, and built-in vector search capabilities enable developers to build modern apps without constraints.

Migrate with Confidence

Zero-downtime migration tools mitigate risk as you move to Astra DB. A phased migration approach enables rollback at any time. Cutover when confident.

Automate Operations

Operational overhead shrinks dramatically with automated backup, restore, and cloning. Multi-region deployment and pay-as-you-go pricing support mission-critical production workloads.

Integrate with Developer Tools

Reduce onboarding time and overhead by using the tools developers know and love. Seamless integrations with popular AI tools like Vertex AI, Vercel, GitHub and more.
