Aerospike Architecture White Paper This paper describes how the Aerospike architecture is derived from three core principles – NoSQL scalability and flexibility, and traditional database consistency and reliability. These principles are demonstrated in the shared-nothing distribution architecture, the schema-less data framework, the insistence on immediate consistency and atomicity, and system-wide fault-tolerance. In addition, the architecture is geared to operational efficiency, both in its ease of use for application developers and system administrators, and in its speed and low resource overhead requirements when running on off-the-shelf Linux environment. Aerospike represents a best of all worlds solution for applications requiring fast transactional access to high scale data. Download the paper.
