Outline Clustrix-The company Clustrix-The product Clustrix-Technical background The overview Architecture Overview Data Layout Select Insert Relationship to class Conclusions References
Clustrix-The company Co-founded by founder of Isilon Paul Mikesell Isilon uses clustered nodes for unstructured data Product to be launched next year New CEO Robin Purohit Previously of HP, Mercury, and Veritas
Clustrix-The product Parallelized Clustered Database (CDS) Designed for Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) Much cheaper than comparable Oracle product Fifteen customers are evaluating the technology with no data loss Including PhotoBox, AOL, TheLadders, EMBL-EBI, and iOffer
Clustrix-Technical background Hardware Multiple server nodes clustered with Infiniband Intel SSDs for increased throughput Software Local queries only access one server node Wider queries access a subset of nodes Queries running on separate nodes run in parallel
The Overview • MySQL Drop-In Replacement • No Sharding • High Performance SQL at Scale • Automatic Fault Tolerance • Incremental Scalability • Online Schema Changes • Delivered as an Appliance
Relationship to class Physical Database Design Uses SSDs for faster access times Separates data onto multiple drives for parallel queries
Conclusion Localizes data to individual nodes Software minimizes required node communication Currently being evaluated with promising initial results Look for Clustrix to provide a scalable OLTP system next year
