Happy Customer
What do you like best about the product?
We enjoy the reliability that Aerospike provides. Along with an ease of setup, it makes it a wonderful product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a ton of community support, most problems need Aerospike support to be fixed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing and query large data sets
Performance at scale
What do you like best about the product?
Aeorospike and team delivered on performance requirements and exceeded expectations. Consistently getting 1-2ms latency on 1B requests per day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Custom hardware required to meet these demands. Some complexity on loads and space management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real-time integration into bid-stream. under 10ms latency requirements including network round-trip. Aerospike allows us to shave critical ms out of our transaction time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely worth it to provide consistent high-throughput read-write capacity and maximize hardware investments. Focused product for meeting these high-demand tasks and worth it when you need it!
Aerospike scale is amazing and great support
What do you like best about the product?
Aerospike's performance is by far its best feature. It is the biggest reason to use the technology, though the clustering aspects also are quite stable and simple to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation on aerospike site is generally good but occasionally there are articles which are obsoleted with newer versions, but do not denote that. This can lead to assumptions being made at a point in time only to later realize the info is out of date. The changes in eviction algorithm is a specific example of this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We require low-latency access to huge volumes of data. Hardware needs to be able to fail or be taken down for maintenance or software updates. Aerospike gives us both of these aspects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to see what Aerospike can do on physical hardware. That's where performance shines. The performance advantages or economics may not translate as well to the cloud.
Aerospike is easy to maintain
What do you like best about the product?
Unlike other NoSql products (... cassandra hint...) Aerospike is very easy to set up and does not have weird, unexpected behavior. UDF's are fairly difficult to write and debug, but if you have a few simple ones they are very valuable. The Java Client for Aerospike is very good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Indices and scans are fairly rudimentary. Unless your use case is purely a key-value store with a one-to-one mapping, this probably isn't the right database for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Serving content to websites with high throughput.
