---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Best used | When you write more than you read (logging). If every component of the system must be in Java. ("No one gets fired for choosing Apache's stuff.") | For accumulating, occasionally changing data, on which pre-defined queries are to be run. Places where versioning is important. | Primarily offered as Database as a Service, allows you to operate 50-node cluster at a fraction of a cost (Pay per CPU). Most suitable for Web-based ACID-compliant solutions, but can be used for many other tasks. | When you have a lot of simple records. | If you're in love with BigTable. :) And when you need random, realtime read/write access to your Big Data. | If you need dynamic queries. If you prefer to define indexes, not map/reduce functions. If you need good performance on a big DB. If you wanted CouchDB, but your data changes too much, filling up disks. | For rapidly changing data with a foreseeable database size (should fit mostly in memory) | |
Usage example | Banking, financial industry (though not necessarily for financial transactions, but these industries are much bigger than that.) Writes are faster than reads, so one natural niche is real time data analysis. | CRM, CMS systems. Master-master replication is an especially interesting feature, allowing easy multi-site deployments. | Feature-wise sits between SQL and MongoDB offering great horizontal scaling in combination with transaction support, Geo, Full-text searches, group-by. | Facebook Messaging Database | For all things that you would do with MySQL or PostgreSQL, but having predefined columns really holds you back. | Stock prices. Analytics. Real-time data collection. Real-time communication. | ||
Known Shortcomings | Lacks embedded language. | No ordering. | No embedded language. Multiple index queries. Lacks features. | Sizes limited by amount of RAM. | ||||
Main focus | Best of BigTable and Dynamo | DB consistency, ease of use | Simple setup. Features. Horizontal scaling. | Billions of rows X millions of columns | Retains some friendly properties of SQL. (Query, index) | Speed | ||
