LAMBDA-B-GONE: IN-MEMORY CASE STUDY FOR FASTER, SMARTER AND SIMPLER ANSWERS

DENNIS DUCKWORTHVOLTDB See all the presentations from the In-Memory

Computing Summit at http://imcsummit.org

VOLTDB An operational database purpose-built to run 100% in-

memory at web scale In-Memory Relational, SQL, fully ACID compliantScale-out on commodity hardwareReliability, HA, fault tolerant Integration with OLAP, Hadoop, DW Best use cases: operational and transactional workloads

Content Delivery Network Service Provider

Business challenges:- Real-time analytics for customers- Data accuracy: over/under billing- Scalability

SQL interface unlike Trident or Spark-Streaming Merges the good things of the old-world like SQL and transactions

with the good things of the new world like ‘no-locks’, ‘k-factor’ HA, etc….

Very simple and intuitive API and usage k-factor + logs + snapshots eliminates the need to backup the

system Fast query performance Horizontal scalability

Simplified system architecture

1/10th the compute resources

100% budget accuracy, eliminated $$$ under/over spending

Faster time to value“We chose to go with VoltDB over other streaming aggregate solutions (like Trident) for its SQL interface, real-time Ad-Hoc queries over our raw data, and simpler overall design”Behzad Pirvali, Architect, MaxCDN

ONE LAST THOUGHT: WORD OF THE DAY

IDEMPOTENCETHE PROPERTY OF CERTAIN OPERATIONS IN MATHEMATICS AND

COMPUTER SCIENCE, THAT CAN BE APPLIED MULTIPLE TIMES WITHOUT CHANGING THE RESULT BEYOND THE INITIAL

APPLICATION.

DONE - THANK YOU
