Scaling data with Amazon Keyspaces: Accelerating Performance with rENIAC's Hardware Accelerated Cache

In this co-presented Amazon partner network twitch video you will hear from Michael Raney, Solution Architect Amazon keyspaces, Prasanna Sundararajan, Founder & CEO of rENIAC, Chidamber Kulkarani, Founder & CTO of rENIAC about

Explosion of data growth and modern data management

Apache Cassandra and challenges managing Cassandra

Caching databases and databases services as a solution with retail Industry use case example of keeping page time down, avoiding shopping cart abandonment.

rENIAC caching technology helps businesses with real-time predictable SLAs, high performance boost for Cassandra.

rENIAC Data Engine for Amazon Keyspaces Preview

Drop-in I/O acceleration for Apache Cassandra
rENIAC Data Engine (rDE) is an FPGA-based database proxy
rDE sits between a database client and database node, caching the data in (Flash) storage that is accessible by the FPGA
rDE can be a caching proxy for Amazon Keyspaces
Clients connect to rDE with CQL proxy
rDE connects to Keyspaces as a client (with TLS support)

Access the slide deck which is below and learn how we made YAML Configuration Changes.
