September 2021 Summaries

Spring Data Aerospike Reactive Repositories enable the development of high scale, high throughput non-blocking applications suitable for microservices and event-driven architectures. Unlike traditional blocking database operations, reactive programming allows execution threads to switch between active tasks while waiting for asynchronous processing completion, resulting in better server resource usage. Spring Data Aerospike Reactive Repositories are built on the Aerospike Reactor client, which wraps the Aerospike Java client with reactive capabilities using Project Reactor under the hood. The reactive repository makes use of Flux and Mono publishers, requiring a subscription to start non-blocking operation execution.

Aerospike 5.7, set to be released soon, introduces the first milestone of a rewrite of Secondary Indexes. This update includes indexes that are 60% more memory efficient and faster queries. Additionally, it features an improved garbage collection system. Developers should take note of changes in the format of sindex-list:ns=test info calls and several modifications or deletions to configuration parameters. Furthermore, some statistics related to namespace, global, and sindex contexts have been altered due to the new garbage collection system.

The global gaming market is expected to reach $314.40 billion by 2026, with emerging trends such as cloud gaming, subscription streaming, virtual reality, artificial intelligence and home-based gaming tournaments gaining traction in the online gaming industry. Companies like Microsoft, Nintendo, Twitch and Activision are investing more to attract new visitors while maintaining a great user experience. Aerospike offers solutions for speed at scale, predictable performance, real-time action, rapid development, high availability and reduced server footprint, helping companies keep up with the latest trends in this competitive market.

Big Data London 2021 is set to take place on September 22-23, offering a platform for industry experts to discuss real-world use cases in data management and analytics. Aerospike will be a Silver Sponsor at the event, presenting two captivating speaking sessions on managing extreme workloads and delivering predictable performance using their Real-time Data Platform. Attendees can also visit Aerospike's booth #319 to learn more about their data management solutions and participate in a raffle for special prizes.

The Aerospike Real-time Data Platform has been significantly enhanced with the release of version 5.7. This update provides improved query capabilities for more robust analytics workloads and faster in-place data analysis. Key features include efficient memory management, real-time garbage collection, and faster access times through direct index entry linking to primary locations. Additionally, Expressions capabilities have been expanded to support complex filters and multi-operations, allowing developers to process data and gain insights directly within the platform. Aerospike 5.7 also introduces auto-indexing of Sets for enhanced performance in accessing records within a set and supports transactional rate limits by Set to prevent the "noisy neighbor" problem in shared service models. Furthermore, the release includes support for Public Key Infrastructures (PKI) and simplified encryption key rotation for increased security.

Aerospike has announced the release of version 5.7, focusing on operational improvements and performance enhancements, particularly for query performance. The update includes changes to secondary indexes, which now use direct references instead of digests, reducing server memory footprint and simplifying configuration. Additionally, resilience capabilities have been extended and improved in cloud environments, with new configuration and sanity checks, as well as run-time circuit breakers. Security enhancements include file access control based on Linux user associations, PKI authentication support, and fast encryption key rotation. Other minor updates include storage compression library upgrades, a new unreplicated records statistic, and changes to the "info" command.
