Business-Critical Analysis Requires a Frontline Data Warehouse
Your mission-critical applications require mission-critical peformance. 24x7 analytic applications such as credit scoring, behavioral ad-targeting, fraud detection, risk modeling, and more are straining traditional back-office data warehouses. Database technology (DBMS) has evolved to power frontline data warehousing.
Aster nCluster
Aster nCluster is a high-performance analytic SQL database for frontline data warehousing and analytics. Unlike traditional analytic databases, Aster nCluster provides an always-on, always-parallel MPP architecture with the first-ever In-Database MapReduce programming framework which combines the power of MapReduce with the rich functionality of SQL in a single RDBMS for business-critical applications.
Aster nCluster is a high-performance analytic database
Aster nCluster is built on a unique, multi-tiered nCluster architecture which consists of three separate classes of servers: Queens, Workers, and Loaders. The three-tier design provides task isolation for always-parallel processing. Each tier can be independently and incrementally scaled in response to the workload characteristics - adding more capacity (Workers), loading bandwidth (Loaders), or concurrency (Queens) on an as-needed basis. Aster nCluster provides:
