Customer Success Stories

Social Networking / High-speed Webcrawling

Profile Technology Ltd. provides a search engine service for Facebook that depends on web crawlers visiting hundreds of millions of users for gathering data. TokuDB accelerated crawler performance by 80x for a 2 billion row database. Disk space requirements were dramatically reduced due to TokuDB’s compression. Installation of the new software took about an hour plus a few days for migrating the data over. Profile is now well positioned for rapid database growth. Click here to learn more.

Mobile Solutions

Jawa is experiencing tremendous growth as it provides critical billing infrastructure to mobile gaming and payment applications for third party solutions. Currently, Jawa has to process over 10 million logs per day. This involves the maintenance and analysis of hundreds of gigabytes of logfiles that need to hold data for anywhere from 14 to 120 days. TokuDB has allowed Jawa to efficiently manage their logfiles by enabling them to cluster by timestamp. By using a clustering key based on timestamp with TokuDB, Jawa was able to get around the InnoDB limitation of non-unique primary timestamp keys. This approach also avoided having to resort to partitioning, which simplified the implementation. Jawa also benefited from a 7x compression. Click here to learn more.
