Machine data is information generated by things In this data era, machine data is an extremely valuable asset. Data allows organizations to improve their decision-making, the efficiency and security of their operations, and their customer service. Besides, data keeps opening new revenue streams by fostering innovation, with the data volumes growing exponentially due to the rise of technologies like edge computing, |oT, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. This is where the challenge comes in: volumes are higher than ever. In this new generation of use cases, firehoses of data are continuously coming in, from many different sources and with different formats. These huge data streams need to be processed in real-time, but most data technologies are not prepared for such a workload + 95% of businesses need to manage unstructured data (source: Forbes) + 68% of the data available to businesses goes unleveraged (source: 1DC) ‘+ +150 trillion gigabytes of data will be analyzed by 2025 (source: Forbes) Why is CrateDB different? In one word: architecture CrateDB is a database purpose-built for machine data, with a unique architecture designed for machine data use cases. Most databases focus on strong consistency; however, machine data is very stable. For these applications, which need to be queried intensively with real-time responses, optimizing performance is way more important than optimizing consistency. This is precisely what CrateDB does, It applies an eventual consistency model with optimistic concurrency control, maximizing data availability and indexing efficiency. The result? CrateDB retums queries in milliseconds even while processing writes, with in-memory aggregations, JOINs, and sub-selects, WHITEPAPER Want to know more?
