Service availability is the measure of success when you run a datacenter. Hardware or software downtime, from unplanned or planned outages, can take your service "off the air." That costs you revenue, customers, and reputation, and consumes staff time in recovery from failures. Do you get the high availability / minimal downtime that you want from your MySQL database, memcached cache, or NoSQL data store? SchoonerSQL and NoSQL bring you higher service availability than you can get from any other MySQL or NoSQL distribution. And you get high performance too.

Replication for redundancy is a proven practice. But the traditional MySQL and NoSQL replication and failover mechanisms are not very efficient. You can learn more about the MySQL side of this in our white paper "The Short Guide to MySQL HA Options." They often introduce operational problems such as:
- a large performance hit compared to single-node usage,
- lost, inconsistent, or stale data,
- clumsy ways of setting up and managing a cluster,
- slave lag, and
- time-consuming, error-prone manual processes of recovery.
Schooner solves those problems through off-the-shelf products that make it easy to use MySQL and NoSQL in the most demanding mission-critical applications:
- SchoonerSQL™: This is our full OLTP database that offers 99.999% high availability with high performance for the most demanding mission-critical applications. SchoonerSQL guarantees no lost or stale data, cuts both planned and unplanned downtime with instant automated failover over LAN and WAN, and provides unlimited read scaling, unlimited write scaling, and easy cluster administration. And it's 100% compatible with MySQL and its standard storage engine, InnoDB.
- Membrain™: This is the smart memcached, optimized to fully exploit the capacity, performance, and power-consumption benefits of flash memory. Membrain offers high-speed synchronous pair-wise replication between nodes, which guarantees no data loss, and supports immediate and automatic failover and recovery.
Scale smart with Schooner to slash your downtime, get great performance, and handle way bigger loads with way fewer nodes. See for yourself, with a download and free trial of SchoonerSQL or Schooner Membrain.
