VoltDB: A Ubiquitous Database for Today’s “Data Everywhere” World
VoltDB is the foundational database powering modern applications charged with managing vast amounts of data generated from widely-dispersed sources, including industrial sensors, global credit card terminals, cell phones or even slot machines. If you’ve recently played a mobile game, run a road race, visited a casino—even turned on a light switch or made a credit card purchase—odds are good that VoltDB is gathering and managing that data and powering the applications that approve your purchase or determine how many chips you control at the baccarat table.

“Solutions that provide the ability to run high-throughput applications across multiple data centers with very low latency offer an attractive option for CSPs with geographically-distributed operations,” said Roz Roseboro, Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading. “As these service providers increase the number of locations providing compute and storage to support subscribers, as well as fog and mobile edge computing and IoT initiatives, they need a proven data management solution that delivers strong consistency, millisecond latency and extreme scalability.”

VoltDB v7.0: More Data, More Sources=More Power
VoltDB v7.0 now includes increased scalability for managing transactions and generating analytics while ensuring high availability and strict data consistency. In addition to the cloud licensing additions, the database’s key new features and benefits include:

  • More power, data security for geographically-dispersed datacenters: v7.0 includes powerful multi-site/cluster, multi-version cross-datacenter replication (XDCR), lowering application latency and improving availability and disaster recovery for geographically-distributed workloads across multiple datacenters;
  • Enhanced real-time analytics and streaming data support: This newest version further supports continuous queries over high-velocity event streams, including the AWS Kinesis stream ingestion and export, empowering even more-powerful real-time analytics, and includes a Confluent-certified Kafka Connect utility.

“VoltDB is empowering global enterprises to monetize data in milliseconds, and with v7.0, we are extending its power to more markets, with greater features and flexibility,” said John Piekos, vice president of engineering for VoltDB. “Our customers count on us to provide the platform they need to build and run 24×7, critical applications that require high transactional throughput and low latency.”
