Feed: Blog – ArangoDB. Author: Willi Goesgens. This is an update of the 2016 blog post How to put ArangoDB to Spartan-Mode. A lot of things have changed in the last years. We moved our API implementation from JavaScript to C++. ArangoDB now has a new (default) storage engine, namely RocksDB instead of MMFiles. RocksDB is a great storage engine. However, it also trades memory for speed. If you start with the default configuration you might end up with using much more memory for ArangoDB than expected. Therefore let’s focus on our new storage engine, and make a configuration to ... Read More

Feed: Blog – Hazelcast. Author: Ensar Basri Kahveci. The CP Subsystem of Hazelcast IDMG 3.12 offers a new linearizable implementation of Hazelcast’s concurrency APIs on top of the Raft consensus algorithm. These implementations live alongside AP data structures in the same Hazelcast IMDG cluster (new BFFs, yay!). You can store large data sets on hundreds of Hazelcast members and coordinate your operations using the new safe concurrency primitives that reside in the very same cluster. This design poses a significant challenge. Hazelcast IMDG is known for its dynamic and elastic clustering capabilities. You can separately configure backups for your data ... Read More

Feed: MemSQL Blog. Author: Floyd Smith. A version of this blog post first appeared in the developer-oriented website, The New Stack. It describes how MemSQL works with Apache Kafka to guarantee exactly-once semantics within a data stream. Apache Kafka usage is becoming more and more widespread. As the amount of data that companies deal with explodes, and as demands on data continue to grow, Kafka serves a valuable purpose. This includes its use as a standardized messaging bus due to several key attributes. One of the most important attributes of Kafka is its ability to support exactly-once semantics. With exactly-once ... Read More

Feed: Blog – Hazelcast. Author: David Brimley. The past year has seen in-memory data grids (IMDG) continue to gain traction with the development community and large organisations alike. As you’ll see in the 2019 IMDG LinkedIn Survey results below, adoption of IMDG as a skill in LinkedIn profiles has risen by 43% YoY. Companies are turning to IMDGs as replacements for RDBMS and NoSQL solutions that struggle to perform at scale. The trend sees IMDGs used as a cornerstone for projects related to Digital Transformation strategies. A key driver for adoption is the ease in which IMDGs drop into new deployment ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Blue Coast. On a typical day, you might open your web browser and rapidly access social media, do some shopping, newspapers and more.

Perhaps your media platform of choice presents you with topics in which you’ve previously demonstrated an interest, in order to encourage you to continue to consume. All of these phenomena are indicative of an intelligent session store — that is, a session ... Read More
