A language-agnostic as well as storage-agnostic web interface for storing data into persistent storage systems, the metadata layer abstracts a lot of storage details and the pattern automation APIs take care of automating common data access patterns. Staash provides the following functionality:

• Rest interface to cassandra.
• Rest interface to mysql(experimental).
• Generic metadata concepts abstract out storage details.
• Higher level abstractions for storing metadata for storage, database and tables.
• Higher level rest apis for creating time-series.
• Ability to persist and query objects via keys.

The term staash stands as an acronym for storage as a service over http.
