DENVER, Oct. 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- HarperDB, a Distributed Systems
Platform, announces the general availability of HarperDB 4.4. The
new release delivers a 50% increase in replicated write
performance, as well as support for sharding, enabling engineers to
take advantage of the platform's unlimited horizontal scale.
HarperDB 4.4 delivers a 50% increase in
replicated write performance, as well as support for
sharding.
"Performance gains were made possible by consolidating a
previously standalone replication function with the existing
transaction log to create a single, more efficient replication
system," explains Kris Zyp, VP of
Engineering at HarperDB. "The updated replication system, codenamed
'Plexus,' is more performant, efficient, secure, and reliable than
previous approaches."
HarperDB 4.4 also includes support for sharding, enabling
efficient storage for massive data volumes across customers'
globally distributed applications. Sharding leverages HarperDB's
new, high-performance replication technology, enabling unlimited
horizontal scale for reads and deep system redundancy.
With the performance gains introduced by these two key features,
developers can now utilize HarperDB for large-scale IoT, gaming,
and social media use cases that require high write throughput.
Also in this release:
- Computed Properties allow developers to define
properties to be computed from other properties, enabling easy
definition and querying of data that is not advantageous to store,
like discount prices, shipping costs, and gaming stats.
- Custom Indexes can now be based on computed properties,
enabling unlimited possibilities for indexing, including composite,
full-text, and vector indexing.
- Replicated Operations make for easy management of large
distributed clusters by enabling restarts and component management
operations to be "replicated," reducing the DevOps workload.
- Dynamic Certificate Management allows certificates to be
added, replaced, and deleted without restarting HarperDB,
streamlining security management.
- For a complete list of updates, read the release note.
