Fun and Informative Events

• Analyst Webinar: Forrester Study on Hybrid Memory NoSQL Architecture for Mission-Critical, Real-Time Systems of Engagement. Thursday, March 30, 2017 | 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET. In today’s digital economy, enterprises struggle to cost-effectively deploy customer-facing, edge-based applications with predictable performance, high uptime and reliability. A new, hybrid memory architecture (HMA) has emerged to address this challenge, providing real-time transactional analytics for applications that require speed, scale and a low total cost of ownership (TCO). Forrester recently surveyed IT decision makers to learn about the challenges they face in managing Systems of Engagement (SoE) with traditional database architectures and their adoption of an HMA. Join us as our guest speaker, Forrester Principal Analyst Noel Yuhanna, and Aerospike’s VP Marketing, Cuneyt Buyukbezci, discuss the survey results and implications for your business.

VividCortex Gives You Database Superpowers

Database monitoring is hard, but VividCortex makes it easy. Modern apps run complex queries at large scales across distributed, diverse types of databases (e.g. document, relational, key-value). The “data tier” that these become is tremendously difficult to observe and measure as a whole. The result? Nobody knows exactly what’s happening across all those servers.

VividCortex lets you handle this complexity like a superhero. With VividCortex, you're able to inspect all databases and their workloads together from a bird's eye view, spotting problems and zooming down to individual queries and 1-second-resolution metrics in just two mouse clicks. With VividCortex, you gain a superset of system-monitoring tools that use only global metrics (such as status counters), offering deep, multi-dimensional slice-and-dice visibility into queries, I/O, and CPU, plus other key measurements of your system's work. VividCortex is smart, opinionated, and understands databases deeply, too: it knows about queries, EXPLAIN plans, SQL bugs, typical query performance, and more. It empowers you to find and solve problems that you can't even see with other types of monitoring systems, because they don’t measure what matters to the database.

Best of all, VividCortex isn’t just a DBA tool. Unlike traditional monitoring tools, VividCortex eliminates the walls between development and production -- anybody can benefit from VividCortex and be a superhero. With powerful tools like time-over-time comparison, developers gain immediate production visibility into databases with no need for access to the production servers. Our customers vouch for it: Problems are solved faster and they're solved before they ever reach production. As a bonus, DBAs no longer become the bottleneck for things like code reviews and troubleshooting in the database.

Make your entire team into database superheros: deploy VividCortex today. It only takes a moment, and you’re guaranteed to immediately learn something you didn’t already know about your databases and their workload.
