In Search of Data Durability and High Performance
Mon, 21 Jan 2013 08:56:27 GMT
Abstract
Eliminating latency, including data management latency, within the trade cycle makes a huge difference for trading success. In-memory database systems (IMDSs) deliver unparalleled speed, via volatile RAM-based storage. To add data durability, IMDSs offer transaction logging (TL). Are they still significantly faster than "traditional" (on-disk) DBMSs?
McObject's original benchmark research answers this question and measures the performance impact of different storage options (HDD, SSD and state-of-the-art memory-tier flash device).
Get the facts in this report to inform your decisions on data management, storage, low-latency and volatility in trading system design.
