Announcing the Clustrix 5.0 Limited Preview

Clustrix is an SQL database built from ground-up for unlimited scale, performance, and fault tolerance in the cloud. Clustrix offers fast transactional query performance at virtually any data set size and concurrency. With Clustrix, you never have to worry about database scalability again.

Mature and Proven

Clustrix has been serving production workloads since 2008. We power dozens of large-scale production customers all around the world. Our largest customers have datasets with billions of rows, multiple terabytes of data, and non-trivial transactional workloads approaching 100,000 TPS in production.

Easy to Scale

Clustrix consists of multiple machines working as peers to create a single consistent database image. We automatically split your tables into multiple slices across the cluster. When adding or removing nodes from the system, Clustrix automatically rebalances and re-protects your data set. We scale reads, writes, and complex queries linearly with every additional node. 

Available and Fault Tolerant

Clustrix maintains multiple copies of all your data. You have complete control over the number of copies – down to the index level. In case of failure, the database will automatically rebuild any degraded copies without any administrator intervention. As long as the database has at least one copy of your data online, you’ll never experience downtime. Clustrix also supports parallel replication between clusters for the ultimate in high availability and disaster recovery.

MySQL Compatible

With Clustrix, you get the full power of a SQL interface. Our database is on the wire compatible with MySQL, which means that you can use your existing application code and connectors with Clustrix. We also fully support the MySQL replication protocol (both row-based and statement-based), allowing Clustrix to serve as master and slave to your existing MySQL deployment.

Designed For Scale and Performance

Clustrix is built from the ground up for high performance and linear scale. Clustrix includes:

• A distributed shared nothing architecture. Clustrix is built using the only paradigm known to work at large scale without bottlenecks. You never have to worry about database scale again.

• Transactional, immediately consistent, and durable. You get all the guarantees you have come to expect from your database so you know your business-critical data is safe and secure.

• Distributed query processing. Clustrix built a distributed planner, optimizer, and compiler from the ground up. Queries run in parallel across multiple nodes and cores for fast execution. Our compiler transforms SQL into x86 machine code for fastest possible execution. Complex queries with joins and aggregates see huge speedups. Add more nodes and more cores, and we will use them all.

• MVCC for lockless reads. Our distributed multi-version concurrency control system ensures readers and writers never interfere with each other, making reads and writes fast even under highly concurrent loads.

• Extensive SQL support (subqueries, outer joins, stored procedures, etc.)

• Online schema changes. Completely lockless and online DDL operations – without exception.

Application Insight

Clustrix comes with a powerful web interface that lets developers and administrators understand how the application uses the database. It provides in-depth insight into current and historical query workloads. Administrators can quickly diagnose problems with a few clicks. Developers can quickly identify areas for application tuning.
