Designed to fully utilize the power of modern cloud hardware and deliver on the data demands of modern applications, Dragonfly frees developers from the limits of traditional in-memory data stores. The power of modern cloud hardware can never be realized with legacy software. Dragonfly is optimized for modern cloud computing, delivering 25x more throughput and 12x lower snapshotting latency when compared to legacy in-memory data stores like Redis, making it easy to deliver the real-time experience your customers expect. Scaling Redis workloads is expensive due to their inefficient, single-threaded model. Dragonfly is far more compute and memory efficient, resulting in up to 80% lower infrastructure costs. Dragonfly scales vertically first, only requiring clustering at an extremely high scale. This results in a far simpler operational model and a more reliable system. 16 Ratings Visit Website Google Cloud Platform Google Cloud is a cloud-based service that allows you to create anything from simple websites to complex applications for businesses of all sizes.

About We help our customers achieve hyperscale efficiency and cost savings for their own private cloud or public cloud storage as a service offering. With our software-defined block storage solution, Lightbits, customers scale their business effortlessly, accelerate IT operations, and reduce cost – at the speed of local flash. Break the dependency between compute and storage to allocate resources independently to bring the flexibility and efficiency of the cloud on-premises. Deliver low latency and high performance while guaranteeing high availability for your distributed databases and cloud native applications such as SQL, NoSQL, and “in memory”. With the constant growth of data in the forever available data center, one of the critical challenges is that applications and services running at scale must stay stateful as they migrate around the data center in order to keep services available and efficient in the presence of constant failures.
