Riak for Software & Technology

• “Always-on” Experience — Downtime costs money, whether due to hardware failure, network partition, or maintenance windows. Riak’s masterless architecture keeps three copies of your data by default to ensure availability. If a node goes down, Riak clusters continue to operate, allowing you to replace lost nodes during normal business hours, conduct rolling upgrades, and reduce operational costs.
• Scale for Millions of Concurrent Connections — Software and Technology companies are growing quickly and the amounts of data they consume is pushing the limits of their IT infrastructure. This data must be accurate and available. They need a NoSQL database solution that can scale easily as they grow. Riak ensures data accuracy and makes it easy to add capacity on demand using commodity hardware. When new nodes are added, Riak KV automatically distributes data evenly across the cluster to prevent hot spots, and yields a near-linear performance increase.
• Low-latent Global Connectivity — Software and Technology companies must support global access for thousands and even millions of users. Riak has innovative database architecture that provides fast read and write functionality for globally distributed data. Riak is designed for reliability and to never lose a write. With advanced Multi-cluster Replication, you can deploy multiple clusters across the datacenter or across the globe.
• Easily Handle IoT and Time Series Data — Whether to collect sensor data or optimize IT infrastructure, software and technology companies must store and analyze torrents of time-stamped data. This data must be processed fast and efficiently in a database that can handle the massive volume and velocity of this data. Riak TS is specifically optimized for fast ingest and analysis of time series data and is operationally easy to use. Riak TS scales on demand with the resiliency you can trust to ensure you are always “open” for business.
• Chat and Messaging Services — Whether providing an enterprise social network like Yammer or customer support via chat, real-time messaging needs to be always up and available. Enabling chat and messaging at scale requires very fast data storage. Due to its key/value design, Riak KV is ideal for supporting messaging features, and for storing and serving social content.
• Real-time Analytics — Once a stellar app gets adopted, user data pours in. Of course, that data is only useful if it’s analyzed. With Riak, you can query using 2i, Solr, MapReduce, or, with Riak TS, even SQL. Also, the Riak Apache Spark Connector is architected for high performance, real-time analysis, and persistence of data. With the Spark Connector, data can be stored in Riak for further processing by Spark or other Big Data application components. Riak also integrates with Mesos, Kafka, and Redis giving you a suite of tools for integrating with your Big Data pipeline.
