Boost authentication and session management with reliable and fast data handling

There is a lot of technical debt in our company, and we need to update to the latest versions. The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern. A tool for automatically handling such upgrades would reduce operational huddle. Additionally, it would be beneficial if Aerospike had a community version to encourage broader adoption and experimentation.

Easy to use and not so expensive

For first-time users, if you don't know much about the tool, I think you should go with a document-based DBMS tool. I had to use the tool because I learned about it in college. My advice to others is that they need to learn about the tool, nodes, and vertices and then purchase Neo4j Graph Database. It will be a little bit difficult for new users to know what is the meaning of a node, what vertices are, how to use it, or how an application can use it. The tool is easy for new users as it is an intuitive tool. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It shows better compression and compaction, which is valuable."

"The solution's best feature is how it differs from traditional SQL databases. It's hard to map people and find those near me in SQL, which requires long, complex queries. Neo4j Graph Database makes this easier with simpler queries. It also supports more data types, like JSON, which SQL doesn't."

"For now, the tool doesn't break down or stop, so it is quite stable."

"Creates the ability to visualize outputs."

"As a graph database, I am surprised at their performance and response time."

"Enables people to understand what the business problem is and how the technology helps."

Cons

"The lack of automation in upgrading clusters from development to production is a concern."

"For me, when the tool was deployed on an on-premises model, it was a little bit difficult the first time."

"There are concerns about performance and whether the tool can necessarily scale to provide the solution."

"So far, we have not had any issues and are happy with the product in general."

"The tool could improve by having more resources, especially for Golang, which we use. It lacks good basic libraries and doesn't have an ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tool, which many NoSQL databases have. We thought about building an ORM for the Neo4j Graph Database but are too busy."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use around half a TB of data and spend approximately $36,000 to $40,000 USD per year on Aerospike."

"The solution is open source so that you can use it for free. They also offer an enterprise version with its billing. If your company is earning well, I suggest using the enterprise version. Otherwise, you can deploy it on your own cloud and pay based on usage."

"The tool is not expensive."
