Challenges
The business of Shouqianba involves various types of objects. The company requires support for a random combination of dimensions chosen from 15 query dimensions.
The result of a query on a large amount of data must be returned within a few sub-seconds.
Large amounts of data need to be stored, including at least 75 GB of incremental data that is generated each day and hundreds of terabytes of existing data. Due to the high requirements for data security in mobile payment, all the mobile payment data must be permanently stored. This incurs high storage costs.
Solutions
Lindorm provides a full-text indexing solution. You can use Lindorm Tunnel Service (LTS) to synchronize data between the LindormTable wide table engine and the LindormSearch search engine in real time. This meets the requirements for queries that use random combinations of query dimensions.
Lindorm provides a feature that allows you to optimize data compression. This feature can be enabled to reduce the consumed storage space, which can help reduce storage costs.
Lindorm provides the cold and hot data separation feature. This feature allows the company to separately store hot data and cold data without the need to modify the applications. This reduces the storage costs of cold data and ensures high performance of accessing hot data.
Benefits
Lindorm provides a search engine called LindormSearch. LindormSearch allows users to search orders by using a combination of random dimensions to ensure high performance.
Lindorm provides a wide table engine called LindormTable. LindormTable provides a feature that allows the company to optimize data compression. LindormTable also allows the company to separately store cold data and hot data in clusters. This way, the company can permanently store data at low costs.
