based on RocksDB as the underlying storage engine for all data. As the amount of data increased, performance issues became more frequent. The client tried to address this problem by adding more memory and CPU resources and limit the scale of a single database in specific environments, thus giving up on functionality. By replacing RockDB with Speedb, the client was able to achieve improved performance with no scaling limitations and leverage the full functionality of the system. High performance at scale Hardware vendors today are innovating new and faster ways to store and retrieve data. While hardware level benchmarks are showing outstanding results, customers are hindered from getting the most value from these innovations due to lack of adequate software that can utilize them effectively. Speedb’s enterprise-grade solution was designed so it can be customized to capitalize on specific hardware innovations. Unlocking hardware innovation While data is stored on disks as files/blocks/objects, metadata is stored in-memory for fast retrieval but must still be consistent and persistent. Existing in-memory key-value stores have limited capacity and high CPU utilization and memory consumption due to high write amplification, which impacts their performance when dealing with large datasets. By replacing RocksDB with speedb on the metadata layer, the client was able to achieve continuous growth while improving performance. Metadata growth
