Thanks for sharing your experience -- I know I've spent a lot of time in the past worrying about FS corruption, but generally expecting that the database sitting on top of it should never get corrupted, mostly because I use postgres so much.

I don't have the experience you do in this situation, but my first reaction to this was definitely "don't use Cassandra". But I also never really understood the use-case where Cassandra shines as a solution either (seems like only companies with a lot of data really seem to get wins from it?)
