Titan with Cassandra

In a previous blog post about Titan, I mentioned about Titan supports three different storage back ends. For this, you need Titan and Cassandra both.

• Download Cassandra Here
• Download Titan Here

Then extract Cassandra and Titan both into a folder and take a terminal or a command prompt. Go to Cassandra bin and run cassandra.bat or Cassandra. Before this, you have to set JAVA_HOME.

Linux:

bash cassandra

Windows:

cassandra.bat

Then take gremlin from titan bin.

Linux:

bash gremlin.sh

Windows:

gremlin.bat

Then you have to configure storage backend. for that use following commands on gremlin.

cnf = new BaseConfiguration();
cnf.setProperty('storage.backend','cassandra');
cnf.setProperty('storage.hostname','127.0.0.1');
g = TitanFactory.open(cnf);

Now rest is your graph database experience!!!
