On-Demand Webinar: Beyond Jurassic NoSQL: New Designs for a New WorldWe live in an age of rapid innovation, but our infrastructure shows signs of rust and old age. Under the shiny exterior of our new technology, some old and dusty infrastructure is carrying a weight it was never designed to hold. This is glaringly true in the database world, which remains dominated by databases architected for a different age. These legacy NoSQL databases were designed for a different (nascent) cloud, different hardware, different bottlenecks, and even different programming models. |

On-Demand Webinar: Eliminating Volatile Latencies: Inside Rakuten’s NoSQL MigrationPatience with Apache Cassandra’s volatile latencies was wearing thin at Rakuten, a global online retailer serving 1.5B worldwide members. The Rakuten Catalog Platform team architected an advanced data platform – with Cassandra at its core – to normalize, validate, transform, and store product data for their global operations. However, while the business was expecting this platform to support extreme growth with exceptional end-user experiences, the team was battling Cassandra’s instability, inconsistent performance at scale, and maintenance overhead. So, they decided to migrate. |

On-Demand Webinar: Wide Column Store NoSQL vs SQL Data ModelingNoSQL schemas are designed with very different goals in mind than SQL schemas. Where SQL normalizes data, NoSQL denormalizes. Where SQL joins ad-hoc, NoSQL pre-joins. And where SQL tries to push performance to the runtime, NoSQL bakes performance into the schema. Join us for an exploration of the core concepts of NoSQL schema design, using ScyllaDB as an example to demonstrate the tradeoffs and rationale. |
