YugaByte DB vs CockroachDB Performance Benchmarks for Internet-Scale Transactional Workloads

Enterprises building cloud native services are gravitating towards transactional NoSQL and globally distributed SQL databases as their next-generation transactional stores. There are at least two distinct usage patterns among these cloud native services – internet-scale transactional workloads and scale-out RDBMS workloads. They have a lot of common demands from the database they use, such as transactions/strong consistency,

Benchmarking an 18 Terabyte YugaByte DB Cluster with High Density Data Nodes

For ever-growing data workloads such as time series metrics and IoT sensor events, running a highly dense database cluster where each node stores terabytes of data makes perfect sense from a cost efficiency standpoint. If we are spinning up new data nodes only to get more storage-per-node, then there is a significant wastage of expensive compute resources. However, running multi-terabyte data nodes with Apache Cassandra as well as other Cassandra-compatible databases (such as DataStax Enterprise) is not an option.
