Apache Cassandra is a free and open-source database management system designed to handle large volumes of data across multiple commodity servers. The system prioritizes availability and scalability over consistency , making it particularly suited for systems with high write throughput requirements due to its LSM tree indexing storage layer. [ 2 ]
Eventually-consistent services are often classified as providing BASE semantics (basically-available, soft-state, eventual consistency), in contrast to traditional ACID (atomicity, consistency, isolation, durability). [5] [6] In chemistry, a base is the opposite of an acid, which helps in remembering the acronym. [7]
Voldemort does not try to satisfy arbitrary relations and the ACID properties, but rather is a big, distributed, persistent hash table. [2] A 2012 study comparing systems for storing application performance management data reported that Voldemort, Apache Cassandra, and HBase all offered linear scalability in most cases, with Voldemort having the lowest latency and Cassandra having the highest ...
Cassandra was initially developed internally at Facebook to handle large data sets across multiple servers, [6] and was released as an Apache open source project in 2008. [7] In 2010, Jonathan Ellis and Matt Pfeil left Rackspace , where they had worked with Cassandra, to launch Riptano in Austin, Texas.
Drizzle is a re-designed version of the MySQL v6.0 codebase and is designed around a central concept of having a microkernel architecture. Features such as the query cache and authentication system are now plugins to the database, which follow the general theme of "pluggable storage engines" that were introduced in MySQL 5.1.
FoundationDB is a free and open-source multi-model distributed NoSQL database developed by Apple Inc. with a shared-nothing architecture. [3] The product was designed around a "core" database, with additional features supplied in "layers."
A distributed SQL database is a single relational database which replicates data across multiple servers. Distributed SQL databases are strongly consistent and most support consistency across racks, data centers, and wide area networks including cloud availability zones and cloud geographic zones.
