Frank Ober of Intel’s Solutions Group will review how he achieved 1+ million transactions per second on a single dual socket Xeon Server with SSDs using the open source tools of Aerospike for benchmarking. The presentation will include a live demo showing the performance of a sample system. We will cover: The state of Key-value Stores on modern SSDs. What choices you make in your selection process of hardware that will most benefit a consistent deployment of Aerospike. How to run an Aerospike mesh on a single machine. How to work replication of that mesh, and what values allow for maximum threading and scale. We will also focus on some key learnings and the Total Cost of Ownership choices that will make your deployment more effective long term.
