YugabyteDB 1.1 New Feature: Public IPs to Simplify Multi or Hybrid Cloud Database Deployments

Welcome to another post in our ongoing series that highlights new features from the latest 1.1 release announced last week. Today we are going to look at the importance of public IP addresses and hostnames in simplifying multi-cloud and hybrid cloud deployments.

In modern cloud deployments, servers often have a combination of private IP addresses (used in the private LAN and often the IP address of the network interface on the server),

YugabyteDB 1.1 New Feature: Speeding Up Queries with Secondary Indexes

Welcome to another post from our ongoing series where we highlight a new feature from the latest 1.1 release! Today we are going to look at secondary indexes.

Defining Secondary Indexes

A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table. Typically, databases are very efficient at looking up data by the primary key. A secondary index can be created using one or more columns of a database table,

Benchmarking an 18 Terabyte YugabyteDB Cluster with High Density Data Nodes

For ever-growing data workloads such as time series metrics and IoT sensor events, running a highly dense database cluster where each node stores terabytes of data makes perfect sense from a cost efficiency standpoint. If we are spinning up new data nodes only to get more storage-per-node, then there is a significant wastage of expensive compute resources. However, running multi-terabyte data nodes with Apache Cassandra as well as other Cassandra-compatible databases (such as DataStax Enterprise) is not an option.

How Does the Raft Consensus-Based Replication Protocol Work in YugabyteDB?

Editor’s note: This post was originally published August 8, 2018 and has been updated as of May 28, 2020.

As we saw in ”How Does Consensus-Based Replication Work in Distributed Databases?”, Raft has become the consensus replication algorithm of choice when it comes to building resilient, strongly consistent systems. YugabyteDB uses Raft for both leader election and data replication. Instead of having a single Raft group for the entire dataset in the cluster,

YugabyteDB 1.0 — A Peek Under The Hood

Modern user-facing apps, like E-Commerce and SaaS, frequently require features from multiple databases (broadly — SQL, NoSQL and a cache) to support their multi-workload needs. App developers are responsible for understanding and managing which pieces of data should be stored in which SQL and NoSQL database. Furthermore, the app is also responsible for moving data across the tiers (e.g. populating the cache on reads and invalidating it on writes). This greatly increases development and operational complexity,
