NoSQL in Real-time Architectures

Target audience: developers, data engineers, application architects.

Abstract:
The steady rise of real-time applications, from ticketing and auction sites, to social networks, to the emergence of real-time bidding (RTB) ad networks have been forcing software architects to experiment with and adopt new technology stacks. Fast NoSQL databases are now the bedrock of scalable app architectures, with a rapidly increasing share of new deployments.
In this session I will review modern scale-out architecture as influenced by RTB and other real-time applications, and the impact NoSQL had on making those applications possible. I will describe how experience with the difficulties of scaling on RDBMS influenced the design of Aerospike, and how that design allows the database to satisfy the requirements of big data real-time apps.

What you will learn:

1. An introduction to the open-source NoSQL database Aerospike.

2. How Hadoop can integrate with a NoSQL-based real-time application, with an example given for the Aerospike Hadoop connector.

3. How Aerospike acts as the persistence layer for Apache Storm based applications.
