Great solution for improving MySQL Performance

The best part about using this software was how simple their documentation made everything seem when setting up our cluster/cluster manager etc.. It's not very user friendly but I believe they have improved since we used them last time (about 2 years ago). Our system has been able solve some issues with performance which were causing us problems previously so thats great! They also offer free support if you contact via phone or email - although i would say its pretty good even without any help…

Pros
  • Also having built in monitoring capabilities too makes it worth while ! Good customer Support team available 24X7 hours ready always willing to listen&nbsp
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

One stop shop solution if/when dealing wth large data

The ability to scale horizontally with minimal effort as well as having built-in support for Cassandra natively - no need to use something like Fluent or Tinkerpop! The product has been developed by experts who have worked extensively with Apache Hadoop ecosystem and know how to architect solutions using those technologies. It's worth noting that there hasn't been much activity at Datastax these days. They've mostly focused their efforts on Cassandra 3.0 which was released last year. If you're…

Pros
  • Native integration
  • Support across multiple platforms, including Linux/OSX/
  • BSD Unixes along side Windows.
  • Robust API set in Java & Python; easy access via both CLI tools
  • Flexible architecture allowing users flexibility when building applications
Cons
  • Some difficulties

It's very intuitive even though not as well known or used compared other DBMSs but still worth trying if you're considering moving away from RDBms. Especially when your requirements include storing large amounts Bigdata with minimal hardware resources require. The only problem i faced while using Data Stax was dealing mainly because my experience level at…

Pros
  • Simple to learn
  • Easy deployment of services in cloud environment.
  • Powerful Query Language (MQL)
  • Compatible across multiple OSes
  • Fully Transactional Database Management System that supports ACID compliant transactions without sacrificing performance due it being distributed database management system running over cluster nodes.
  • High Availability
  • Multiple data centers support
Cons
  • Empty
