As shown in a number of blogs, the MySQL Cluster SW already uses the type of features found in many NoSQL products. It has an extremely efficient API through which it is possible to shoot millions of reads and writes towards a Cluster per second. It contains partitions of its data similar to shards in NoSQL and supports both high availability of those partitions and also repartitioning of the data when new nodes are added to the Cluster. Advanced replication solutions both providing replication inside a Cluster and between Clusters makes it possible to use MySQL Cluster in an a very large number of replication configurations, even scaling across multiple global data centers.
Finally MySQL Cluster makes it possible for you to choose to stay with your data in relational tables while still using NoSQL-like APIs, supporting on-line changes of partitioning and also adding new fields to tables while still reading and writing data in the tables. Using MySQL Cluster you can use MySQL APIs, the NDB API, Cluster/J, JPA, LDAP API and even more APIs are worked on and will soon be announced.
Most web data requires heavy use for generation of web pages where the use is mostly simple queries, but very many of them. Most of the web data also requires analysis to make intelligent business decisions based on the web generated data. A prototype of parallel query for MySQL Cluster was displayed at the MySQL Users Conference 2010. Tools such as this will also make it possible to analyse data efficiently in MySQL Cluster. Thus MySQL Cluster is a very efficient tool for working with many sorts of web data while retaining ACID compliance and a rich set of tools, expertise and best practices.
