After using Spark to complete such transformations, you often want to store your data in a persistent and efficient format for long-term access. The common solution of storing data in HDFS solves the issue of persistence, but suffers efficiency issues as a result of the HDFS disk-based architecture. The MemSQL Spark Connector solves both of these issues by providing an easy to use Spark API for reading from, writing to, and ... Read More
Challenges with Google’s Cloud Spanner

Feed: Clustrix Blog. Author: Dave Anselmi. At this point everyone has heard of Google’s Cloud Spanner. It’s Google’s first database offering that can scale-out write transactions linearly, as well as provide cross-node transactions with ACID guarantees, claiming to solve significant problems that Amazon’s Aurora cannot. But as discussed before, Spanner is able to accomplish that scale by accepting some trade-offs, such as increasing latency with each node (“participant”). And of course the elephant in the room for MySQL developers–Google Spanner is not MySQL compliant, nor even ANSI SQL compliant. It turns out those aren’t the only trade-offs Google has made ...

Pinsight Media (Pinsight) began in 2012 with the mission of combining first-party data with mobile web and app data, to uncover users’ actual habits and brand affinities. Pinsight then offers its clients distinct personas that are precisely targeted to achieve maximum campaign ... Read More
