Snowflake

FoundationDB is a free and open source, distributed, transactional key-value store, NoSQL database. It is multi-modal, boasts performance on commodity hardware, and stores data in a key-value store component. It was open-sourced by Apple in 2018 under the Apache 2.0 license.

MongoDB is an open source document-oriented database system. It is part of the NoSQL family of database systems. Instead of storing data in tables as is done in a "classical" relational database, MongoDB stores structured data as JSON-like documents with dynamic schemas (MongoDB calls the format BSON), making the integration of data in certain types of applications easier and faster.

How FoundationDB powers SnowflakeDB's metadata! - Ashish Motivala, Snowflake Computing

FoundationDB is an integral part of the architecture of SnowflakeDB, a cloud SQL analytics database. FDB is effectively their OLTP engine and has allowed them to build some truly amazing and differentiating features. 

Snowflake have been operating it for 4+ years, and as they have grown, FDB has continued to scale from tens of servers to thousands of servers at present.

In this talk Ashish will present why FDB was their preferred choice, what purposes it serves, and the reliability and scale of their FDB clusters.
