In the real world, there's a phenomenon called a “phantom traffic jam” or a “traffic wave.” This is when there is a standing compression wave in automobile traffic, even though there is no accident, lane closure, or other incident that would cause the traffic jam. A similar phenomenon is possible in computer networking or storage I/O, where your data can slow down for no apparent reason. In this talk, we describe when and how this effect can arise and what can be done to discover it.
In this panel, TDWI senior research director James Kobielus and ScyllaDB VP of product Tzach Livyatan will lead data industry experts in a discussion of the future of NoSQL databases.

We 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.

Patience 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.
