Aerospike vs. Percona Server for MongoDB

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.

It offers good support for the implementation of solutions in the public and on-premises cloud and integration with other services such as Hashicorp Vault for data encryption. One of the main advantages is the ease of configuration, in addition to offering transaction support for the different operations and scalability of the servers.

• Low latency
• Stable
• Highly configurable
• increasing features

Incentivized

• High performance
• Integration with other tools and services
• Big data projects oriented
• High availability and scalability

• 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

• The learning curve makes it a bit tricky to use at first.
• Documentation is an aspect to improve, especially for people who are just starting out.
• At the interface level, the user experience could be improved.

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 were in dilemma in deciding the database and it was the first time we were using Aerospike. Eventually, everything went as expected and resolved the client's requirement along with positive feedback and appreciation

Incentivized

One aspect to improve is the user experience since sometimes the steps to take are not clear and the user may need to review some of the actions before continuing with the next ones. Another aspect to improve is the documentation and support for developers who want to know the tool.

You pay for the level of support.

Incentivized

It offers good support for the implementation of solutions in the public and on-premises cloud and integration with other services such as Hashicorp Vault for data encryption. Also, it offers support for different compatible programming languages such as C, C ++, Java, as well as offering good support for the persistence of schema-free data and the possibility of saving data in memory.

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

Incentivized

At the performance level, it is similar to other solutions such as MongoDB and Percona Server for MySQL. and at the customization level, it offers better support for the development of specific solutions that seek good performance in transactions.

Incentivized

• increased response time
• minimal managerial resource required
• developer can start using with shallow learning curve

Incentivized

• It offers a good alternative solution compared with other open source databases.
• We have many resources at the documentation level and other tools that help the integration with different programming languages.
