Does NOSQL – CASSANDRA suitable for storage files?

Cassandra's public API is based on Thrift, which offers no streaming abilities 
any value written or fetched has to fit in memory. This is inherent to Thrift's 
design and is therefore unlikely to change. So adding large object support to
Cassandra would need a special API that manually split the large objects up 
into pieces. A potential approach is described in http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-265. 
As a workaround in the meantime, you can manually split files into chunks of whatever 
size you are comfortable with - at least one person is using 64MB - and making a file correspond 
to a row, with the chunks as column values.

I am developing a PHP platform that will be used a lot Images, documents and any file format, this will be in my mind, so I want to know if Cassandra is a good choice for my needs.

If not, can you tell me how to store the file? I want to continue using cassandra because it is fault-tolerant and uses automatic replication between nodes.

Thanks for the help.

So if your file is <10MB you should be fine, as long as Make sure to limit the file size, or break large files into blocks.
