AEROSPIKE

*Aerospike is a distributed, in-memory, NoSQL database. It is designed to be horizontally scalable and to handle high transaction rates with low latency. *

Here are a few key features of Aerospike:

  • In-memory data storage: Aerospike stores data in RAM to provide very fast access times.

  • Persistence: Aerospike can also write data to disk to provide data durability in case of power failure or server restart.

  • Automatic scaling: Aerospike automatically distributes data across multiple servers, allowing it to scale horizontally as the data set grows.

  • Strong consistency: Aerospike provides strong consistency, meaning that all nodes in the cluster see the same data at the same time.

  • Support for multiple data types: Aerospike supports storing a variety of data types, including strings, integers, lists, and maps.

  • Built-in query language: Aerospike has a built-in query language called AQL that can be used to retrieve and manipulate data.

  • High availability: Aerospike is designed to be highly available, with features such as cross-data center replication and automatic failover.
