Thanks for the link, it will be useful if I try to make a case for cassandra vs redis. Other questions: how robust are the clients (especially for php), and are you aware of any performance/scaling comparisons between cassandra and redis?

the clients are thrift, and the commonly used ones (java, python, ruby, C++, php), are robust, although the thrift devs are slow to apply patches sometimes (all the php users I know have applied http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-347).

redis is faster per node, but does not scale, there is not much to compare. :)
