PayPal, the world’s largest online money transfer, billing, and payments system, wanted instant response to detect fraud among hundreds of reads and writes per transaction, 325 million customer profiles, and 32% annual data growth. They partnered with Aerospike to deploy Intel Optane Persistent Memory in an optimized database with higher performance than SSDs, lower cost per GB than DRAM, higher node densities, and data indexes which persist over system restarts. This solution stores 5x more records per node, reduced node count by 2x, and increased replication factor from 2 to 3, with 30% lower cluster hardware cost and 8x faster restart times. In this session, Tim Faulkes, Vice President of Solutions Architecture for Aerospike, discusses the solution with Ginger Gilsdorf, Application Engineer at Intel, and Kristie Mann, Sr. Director Optane DC Persistent Memory Products at Intel. The group also takes questions from the Storage Field Day delegates.

Personnel: Ginger Gilsdorf, Kristie Mann, Tim Faulkes
