CLUSTRIX: BUILT FOR SCALE AND THE CLOUD

HIGH-SCALE TRANSACTIONS

• Linear scalability for writes/updates/reads

• Double nodes double transactions/sec

REAL-TIME ANALYTICS

• Linear speedup for analytics

• Double nodes half the query time

ACID, SQL AND MYSQL

SELF-MANAGING

BUILT-IN FAULT TOLERANCE

SCALE-OUT

REAL WORKLOADS

PERFORMANCE AND SCALE

• Massive Media

• Near-linear scalability for reads/writes/updates

• Add more nodes to handle more TPS

• Near-linear speedup for analytics

• More nodes faster queries

• 20 million+ users / 70,000+ TPS• Write heavy workload; 1TB+ writes / day

OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE

Microsoft SQL ServerMedExpert proprietary treatment research

Analytics Application: Professionals provide expert advice to improve patient outcomes

New DoD & Medicare contracts Expected 100x increase in usage

One Scale-Out database • 4 nodes - growth to 20• Minor application changes & tuning

Alternatives ConsideredFusion I/O – 20% boostNo TTM to shard the application

Why ClustrixPOC showed performance boost for analytics queriesand linear scale for long term

Clustrix Results50% - 200% faster query responseTCO less than 50% near term

THE CHALLENGE

HIGH-SCALE TRANSACTIONS

• Write heavy workload with 1TB+ writes per day

• 20 million+ users / 70,000+ TPS

CLUSTRIX 18 NODES

• 11X+ the TPS of a single MySQL server

• 20B+ Rows of data

“Pre-Clustrix, we spent a lot of time on optimizing for performance and scale. Now we can spend those resources better.”
