Aerospike vs. Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) vs. SAP HANA Cloud

We were developing an advertisement time auction application, where we had to store the client's personal details, advertisement-related details, location, and many other details. Moreover, we required a promotion, cookies, and a few more details from the front end. All this information is heavy in terms of size and cannot be lost if the server crash. So, we required an extremely fast disk database with high scalability and low throughput.

AWS Document DB (with MongoDB compatibility) is well suited when for all the workloads due to its huge feature offerings which will reduce our operational overhead and due to that we can focus more on our WorkLoad rather than optimising and fine tuning Databases. Its Offerings are Advanced Monitoring, DB cluster Upgrades, Migration Assistant, High Availability, Fault Tolerance, Data Durability, Security, Storage Auto Scaling, Backup Restore policies.AWS Document DB (with MongoDB compatibility) some of the features that are there in some other services like MongoDB Atlas that offers vast amount of features plus Supports Multi Cloud while Deploying Database clusters, Immediate support to latest Mongo DB versions, Mobile & Edge Sync like Atlas Edge Sync, Freedom to choose Database deployment in Any top Public Cloud, Having more then 100 plus Monitoring and Telemetry metrics for index and schema recommendations, More Compatibility with MongoDB queries.

I think if you have a large organization, it's probably the product and the marketplace to go to. We're a large management consulting firm operating in four to seven countries. And generally speaking, I think that's the size and the scope where it scales best. I can't speak to smaller companies, but I can't see smaller companies leveraging the benefits as much as a larger organization can.

• Low latency
• Stable
• Highly configurable
• increasing features

• Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility) provides Auto scaling of cluster as a by default functionality through this we can focus on more on our applications end
• Through AWS Document DB without much operation overhead we can configure for Database's high availability, Durability, Backup Restores policies, Advanced Monitoring, Security Parameters.
• Also they can provide us a Guide for Database Migration from any Supported Mongo DB vendor to AWS Document DB.
• Via AWS Document DB query Logging ( Profiling ) we can fine tune our database queries and hence improving our END to END Customer Experience and Product Enhancements.

• Real-time reporting and analytics on data: because of its in-memory architecture, it is perfect for businesses that need to make quick decisions based on current information.
• Managing workload with complex data: it can handle a vast range of data types, including relational, documental, geospatial, graph, vector, and time series data.
• Developing and deploying intelligent data applications: it provides various tools for such applications and can be used for machine learning and artificial intelligence to automate tasks, gain insights from data, and make predictions.

• Load balancing per network segments.
• Reduction in price.
• Cross datacenter replication usage isn't so straightforward. Sometimes cross dc replication can have issues of bad data..

Incentivized

• Give support for Latest Mongo DB versions available in market
• AWS Document DB is limited up to 32 shards per cluster and 2 shards per Document DB instance and all within single region
• Start supporting more numbers of Rich data types
• Should have access to MongoDB experts who throw light on Cutting edge mongoDB features and integration consulting.

Incentivized

• Requires higher processing power, otherwise it won't fly. How ever computing costs are lower. Incase you are migrating to cloud please do not select the highest config available in that series . Upgrading it later against a reserved instance can cost you dearly with a series change
• Lack of clarity on licensing is one major challenge
• Unless S/4 with additional features are enabled mere migration HANA DB is not a rewarding journey. Power is in S/4

If money isn't an issue, and you're not on the cloud, then I'd go with Aerospike. If you're the cloud ie, aws or azure, then i'd stick with dynamoDB or Cosmos then. Aerospike is definitely not something you want to put into the cloud. It doesn't work well w/ cross regions. If cross DC, you'll have to write some stuff for data integrity checks.

We would rate our likelihood of renewing at 9/10. SAP HANA Cloud has proven to be a highly reliable and scalable data platform that consistently delivers strong performance. Its seamless integration with our overall SAP landscape, combined with improved analytics and real-time data capabilities, makes it a core part of our long-term technology strategy.

Could be easier to use and install. Also developer experience needs some work

It is very useful solution which provides you speedier data processing, real-time analytics. It helps you manage diverse data types. It also offers you excellent disaster management. It has user friendly interface which helps you navigate system and transactions easily and perform task smoothly.

However, I am not the right person to answer this as we have another department to handle support and contact the service provider for any support required. Although i will say that they are the quick respondent and knows how to handle querry of the customers and provide quick and better support.

Professional GIS people are some of the most risk-averse there are, and it's difficult to get them to move to HANA in one step. Start with small projects building to 80% use of HANA spatial over time.

Aerospike is much more performant than MongoDB, however there is much greater community adoption and support for mongo

I have deep knowledge of other disk based DBMSs. They are venerable technology, but the attempts to extend them to current architectures belie the fact they are built on 40 year old technology. There are some good columnar in-memory databases but they lack the completeness of capability present in the HANA platform.

I don't have visibility in licensing

• Being able to power the same workload on a fraction of the servers has led to better ROI for my application.
• Less servers needed also meant less time to manage the cluster, leading to savings in engineering time

• Great Customer Experience as DB queries are fine tuned
• Less Operational Overhead to manage and take care of the Database
• Automatic applying of Small patches

Incentivized

• ROI has always been high in terms of the functionality that it offers and the security features it comes with.
• Managing large volumes of data in real-time is not an easy task, but it does it pretty well with faster data processing.
