"Unbelievably fast database with super replication - started production with it in one day"
What do you like best about Aerospike?

XDR super easy replication is my #1. Super easy to set up, you choose what and where to replicate.

Additionally, software has the possibility to fully utilize some cloud providers and their services, which is giving this software huge advances..

I loved shadow devices and lastly but very importantly, every time I contacted support it was a great experience.

What do you dislike about Aerospike?

Honestly, the software is properly built and I haven't founded its downsides yet, As soon as I do, will write a new review.

Recommendations to others considering Aerospike:

I used it as great replacement for Memcached, as I needed some good replicated solution, and Aerospike has it all in one software, I one namespace configuration...

Additionally, for setup to support 10k I/O per sec, you need around 5 hours - if inexperienced with software.

What problems is Aerospike solving and how is that benefiting you?

If you want to be self-dependent, not a slave of any cloud-managed service, you can have a super-fast database for a fair price including maintenance.

"Using Aerospike as the main Database to track Trillions of Objects in the packaging Industry"
What do you like best about Aerospike?

Aerospike removes a big administrative Overhead for big Clusters compared to other Solutions and provides us with many useful out of the Box Features to implement high frequent and high performant functionality for billions of Records. The Aerospike Client Libraries are published Open-Source. That gave us the Chance to make Improvements and add Features we needed ourself.

What do you dislike about Aerospike?

Handling records with a large amount of Data is complicated due to the Record Size Limitations. Queries on many Records can be hard because of the missing ability to limit Query results

Recommendations to others considering Aerospike:

Using Aerospike as main Database causes a lot of rethinking of Modeling/Usage. The Aerospike Academy Courses offer a great way to look into the insights and help to learn to use the Database the right way.

What problems is Aerospike solving and how is that benefiting you?

Aerospike is used as the Core Database of our Infrastructure used to track a huge Amount of Retail and Packaging Information of large Companies around the World. It's high scaling ability and easy administration helped us to build an Database Infrastructure able to track nearly trillions of Records in real time with a minimal maintenance effort and low cost overhead. The Aerospike Connect Exportes allow us to build a realtime aggregation Platform and Machine Learning without any changes to our existing Code.

We should be able to know whether the records were inserted earlier, kind of auditing features.

we also like to have an atomicity feature as findAndModify which is present in MongoDB.

- XDR which was missing in Redis which we were using.

- power of both storage and cached at the same time.
