Offload Your Database to Improve Site Performance
In many web sites there are different classes of data sets that need sharing, persistence, and high availability. In the past, either all these data sets were placed into a relational database, or some of the simpler data sets were maintained and accessed by custom applications to offload the database and improve performance. Schooner has addressed these distinct needs with optimized solutions for these different data classes. Schooner's Appliance for MySQL Enterprise provides a full ACID-compliant database solution, and Schooner's Appliance for Memcached/NoSQL provides a high-performance, highly-available and scalable NoSQL key-value store.
The Schooner Appliance for Memcached/NoSQL can offload the MySQL database, providing the data store for many classes of simple data. For example, customers are using Schooner's Appliance for Memcached/NoSQL in production today as the persistent data store for cookies, address book, session state, and many other classes of simple data. For such data sets the Schooner Appliance for Memcached/NoSQL provides much higher performance than a SQL database without losing anything in terms of enterprise-class availability, disaster recovery, and easy administration.
Used as a key-value store, the Schooner Appliance for Memcached/NoSQL delivers:
