Challenging Components of the Platform

1212

SpringCM scales by using DataStax Enterprise + HP MoonshotWith an equivalent capital investment (comparisons to DL360s) :

• Write Events

- 3X the capacity to execute workflow steps (10X more than SQL)

- Nearly 100% reduction in locking events on object metadata

- 3X increase in capacity to apply metadata to objects (Due to locking avoidance, 30X more than SQL)

• Deletion Events

- Nearly transparent ability to delete rows on a retention schedule because of TTL capability

• Read Event

- General ability is 6-7X faster during high read load periods

- During equivalent read-to-write load periods, it’s about 4X faster

Our Approach

DataStax Enterprise

HP Moonshot System

HP DL360s / DL380s

1414

Our Approach – DataStax Enterprise

• Most mature NoSQL solution

• Community based, used by the top players

• Elastic technology

• Ring base architecture

• Cost effective

• Time to Live features

• Easy to manage / maintain

• Extendable (native support for Spark, Solr )

• Highly available

• Geo-replication of data

1515

Our Approach – HP Moonshot System

• Ideal for high volume bursts of data changes

• Economical high node to TB ratio

• 45 servers in 4u space, 40Gbit Network, No cabling per cartridge

• 70% power savings over traditional rack server architecture

• Speeds time to market by simplifying platform requirements

• Drive down TCO and deliver a smaller, denser compute architecture

• In a data center with 30A / 208V powered cabinets, we can run 2-3X the amount of data per cabinet equivalent

1616

Our Approach – ProLiant DL servers

• More affordable for time series data such as

– Logs

– History

– Audit data

– Other

• Ability to have large capacity nodes

• Economical as we re-used old hardware

1717

Lessons Learned• Prepare your team for the task ahead

– DataStax Consultation in house

– Eventual consistency

– Know your query before you build your table

– Know your access patterns

– Send key members to training

• Make a technology decision based on data/trust

• Dealing with hybrid environments - culture

• Start small, grow as you gain confidence

• CQL is comforting

• DataStax & HP Support is awesome

1818

The Future

• Continue to reduce the size our SQL footprint

• Use Solr to re-engineer our Reporting engine

• Use Spark to enhance our back end analytics engine

• Materialized views
