Niklas Bjorkman wrote: Firstly I agree with your conclusion. NewSQL takes the best of the traditional databases and NoSQL databases to combine the benefits of both worlds. I do not agree that NewSQL vendors focus on giving scale-out features to transactional data. The NewSQL market is focusing on giving true ACID support combined with extreme performance, stepping away from the traditional relational structures in databases. A lot of developers appreciate the ease of accessing data using SQL and I think we will see more and more databases supporting standard SQL. As you said - NewSQL databases often maintain the...

Data Protection -- Caringo's CTO de-mystifies Replication and Erasure Coding for Object Storage
Whitepaper addresses how controlling the probability and size of data loss while reducing complexity and costs is the key to Cloud Storage and Big Data Storage

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Data loss in storage systems is unavoidable, in spite of what most storage vendors try to make users believe, says Paul Carpentier, CTO and Co-Founder of Caringo, the leading provider of object storage software.

By selecting the right solution and applying the appropriate parameters, however, users can control both the probability of data loss, as well as the size of the data loss based upon their business requirements. Carpentier, the 'Car' in Caringo, provides insight into the specifics of this process as it relates to Object Storage which is the de facto standard for enabling Cloud Storage, Big Data Storage and any rapidly scaling storage environment. The whitepaper is available at: www.caringo.com/wp-reps-and-ec.

The paper includes the following:

  • The truth most storage vendors don't tell you about data protection
  • Why you need both replication and erasure coding
  • An introduction to Caringo's Elastic Content Protection
  • Graphs comparing data loss resulting from replication and erasure coding
  • Using Caringo's Data Durability Calculator to calculate storage efficiency and data durability (as a factor of 9s)

The full paper can be downloaded from the Caringo website at: www.caringo.com/wp-reps-and-ec.

About: Paul Carpentier | CTO and Co-Founder
Paul Carpentier brings 35 years of technical and thought leadership about content storage to Caringo. Carpentier, is known as the "father of content storage" due to his work as CTO at FilePool where he invented the simple but elegant concept of scalable content storage.
