The NitroEDB™ Relational Data Management Engine
What if data management was no longer a limitation?
Over the course of hundreds of man-years of R&D, NitroSecurity has developed a high-speed information processing architecture capable of receiving and analyzing data at extremely high speeds. The heart of this core architecture is NitroEDB: a high-performance database that enables many of the advanced features found in NitroGuard and NitroView. NitroEDB is also a full-feature embedded relational data engine ideal for OEM customers. NitroEDB is capable of performing queries, counts, and analytics on large data stores (1 billion+ records), even under load (50,000 new insertions per second), and still return results in under a second.
With its Any-Memory™ capability, NitroEDB is able to support the full spectrum of data management needs, from extremely fast in-memory applications to high-volume, very large database (VLDB) on-disk server systems.
NitroEDB's robust features and performance are the result of a unique combination of its patented high-performance N-Tree™ thread-tuned indexing technology, highly tuned cache management techniques, SQL query optimization and storage management algorithms, and 100+ staff-years of data management product development.
Benefits of NitroEDB
NitroEDB offers many benefits to NitroView and NitroGuard products, including:
- High insertion rates—maximizing our ability to collect new logs, events and network flows
- High SQL query speed—allowing extremely fast response times for searches, queries and reports
- High VLDB data volumes—providing more efficient storage of collected events, logs and flows
- Linear memory & disk storage scalability—Unlimited data volume sizes allow large histories of data to be accessed quickly
- Compressed in-memory indexes—for fast searches and reporting, as well as fast analytical operations
- Zero admin data management—for easy-to-use appliances
- Minimizes hardware requirements—allowing lower-cost appliances to out-perform large-scale processing clusters
A Proven Solution—Backed by MySQL
NitroEDB is so well-suited for large-volume, high-speed statistical data management that it warranted a partnership between MySQL an NitroSecurity. As a result, MyNitro, the high-performance MySQL plugin, was developed—offering a significant performance improvement over MySQL with MyISAM. While the performance isn't as good as a native-NitroEDB
