IRIS brought us a new WOW feature - SHARDING !
Definitely a great thing!
But how can I find out if it suits my actual applications?
Is there a practical advantage to go for it with my well cooked transactional application?
Or is it just for new still to be designed applications?
Hi Community!
Please welcome a new video on Developer Community YouTube Channel:
Getting Sharded with InterSystems IRIS
Hi Community!
New session recording from Global Summit 2018 is available on Developer Community YouTube Channel:
Hi all,
As I promised in my previous post Sharding evaluation #1 I continued investigating the impact f the number of shards.
Hi Community!
New video "Deploying Shards Using InterSystems Cloud Manager" is available now on DC YouTube Channel:
In order to get a feeling for Sharding I decided to set up a Cluster "by own hands"
1 Master (Win10) 2 Shard "slaves" on Ubuntu64
In a single server environment, it is rather easy to create a transaction consistent backup.
Simplified:
You find (or force a specific point in time with no open transactions.
Freeze your server, take a snapshot and you are done.
Hi Everybody!
We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming webinar "Sharding as the basis of Scaling in InterSystems IRIS Data Platform" on 24th of July at 10:00 (Moscow time)!
With the release of InterSystems IRIS, we're also making available a nifty bit of software that allows you to get the best out of your InterSystems IRIS cluster when working with Apache Spark for data processing, machine learning and other data-heavy fun. Let's take a closer look at how we're making your life as a Data Scientist easier, as you're probably already facing tough big data challenges already, just from the influx of job offers in your inbox!
Last week, we announced the InterSystems IRIS Data Platform, our new and comprehensive platform for all your data endeavours, whether transactional, analytics or both. We've included many of the features our customers know and loved from Caché and Ensemble, but in this article we'll shed a little more light on one of the new capabilities of the platform: SQL Sharding, a powerful new feature in our scalability story.
