(firmenpresse) - CAMBRIDGE, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/19/12 -- , the worldwide leader in distributed database technologies, announced today that , its NoSQL distributed database, is being used by enStratus Networks to meet the Company's high-availability and performance objectives.
enStratus is a cloud infrastructure management platform from enStratus Networks, Inc. that addresses the governance issues associated with deploying systems in public, private and hybrid clouds. Think of enStratus as the enterprise console to the world of cloud computing -- a unified solution for managing a single cloud or multi-cloud environment. Every minute of every day, enStratus coordinates metadata across hundreds of thousands of virtual machines from and across its customers' varied cloud infrastructures. Because customers rely on enStratus for the management of critical IT systems in the cloud, it is important that the management platform matches or exceeds the promise of the very systems enStratus manages and monitors.
Today, thanks to Riak, enStratus benefits from high availability, write-scalability and an architecture that supports cross-data center redundancy. Built as a key/value store, Riak has an inherent ability to easily manage both structured and unstructured data, even at scale. enStratus uses Riak to store a combination of read-heavy and write-intensive data, such as machine and state information, and data supporting analytics and audit control. Prior to switching to Riak, enStratus' cloud platform was deployed on MySQL.
"We first worked with Basho to gain a 'master/master' replication system that enables enStratus to run live operations across multiple data centers," said George Reese, Chief Technology Officer at enStratus. "enStratus relies on Riak to ensure that our cloud infrastructure management platform scales seamlessly, without interruption and performance bottlenecks, while meeting and exceeding internal requirements for high availability and data durability. With Riak, we are achieving our goal of a highly-available, 'design for failure' architecture."
Riak is a horizontally scalable, highly available, low latency distributed database that delivers on the promise of data durability and low operational overhead. With Riak, enterprises and service providers can rest assured that their data is not only available, but also safe. If nodes fail or the access to nodes is lost, Riak will never lose data.
