The Trouble With Today's Databases
Unidirectional Data Flow
Production services utilizing traditional OLTP databases cannot use the results generated in an analytics pipeline without additional infrastructure.
Limited Scalability
Many database systems are limited in their ability to scale across geographic regions without making significant tradeoffs either in latency or consistency guarantees.
Operational Complexity
Setting up and maintaining multiple database systems and ETL pipelines is hard. It gets even harder when organizations and services start to scale.
Where GlareDB Fits In
GlareDB consolidates transactional and analytical workloads into one system, without limiting the scaling capabilities of connected services.
