MySQL Cluster Powers Leading Document Management Web Service
May 24, 2010
The database needed to deliver the high levels of write throughput, low latency responsiveness and continuous availability demanded by the service
A sharded, multi-master MySQL solution with memcached was rejected due to the complexity of integration and management
MySQL Cluster was selected as it met all of the requirements of the service with one, integrated solution out of the box
MySQL Cluster is handling on average 1 million queries per day across both in-memory and disk-based tables, with the database growing at up to 2% daily
MySQL Cluster handles document metadata and text, PHP session state, ACLs, job queues and tracking of document actions for billing
