Cloudera Operational Database benefits
You deploy Cloudera Operational Database on a public cloud infrastructure that provides you with capabilities and flexibility that your on-premises hardware sometimes cannot offer. Using an existing Cloudera environment, you can quickly create an operational database with a single click. You can launch a database with the durable and consistent storage technology you may already be familiar with if you have used CDH or HDP, but with none of the legacy complexity.
Data access
Access data stored in Cloudera Operational Database with the Apache HBase Java API, the Phoenix JDBC driver, or the Phoenix thin client JDBC driver. You can also use other Cloudera components and experiences to help you with data ingress.
Cloudera Shared Data Experience support
Cloudera Shared Data Experience Data Lake provides Cloudera Operational Database with common security, auditing, and lineage capabilities used by other Cloudera experiences. You can pause and resume your Cloudera Operational Database instances for Research and Development environments to optimize cloud cost.
Auto-scaling
Auto-scaling means that the capabilities of your database can grow to automatically handle increased load against your database, and shrink automatically to reduce your costs without sacrificing availability. Cloudera Operational Database continuously monitors the services and periodically collects all the metrices. Cloudera Operational Database meets all the latency requirements by analyzing the collected metrices. Cloudera Operational Database also fine-tunes itself to improve performance over time.
Cloudera Operational Database monitors the underlying the services and automatically scales up or down the services to ensure that the latency and RPC metrices are met. Cloudera Operational Database enables you to create a cluster quickly and has auto-scaling to help you with your different workload requirements. For more information, see Autoscaling in public cloud environments.
Auto-healing
Cloudera Operational Database continuously monitors the clusters and if any failure scenario is encountered, Cloudera Operational Database automatically heals and repairs them. For example, Cloudera Operational Database monitors the instances on the cluster in a Cloudera environment, and if any instance is broken or missing, Cloudera Operational Database recreates the instances.
