HarperDB is a distributed database, caching service, streaming broker, and application development platform focused on performance and ease of use.
HarperDB eliminates the complexity typically synonymous with distributed services by combining an ultra-fast document data store, in-memory cache, real-time message broker, and your application components into a single distributed technology. When clustered and geo-distributed, HarperDB nodes instantly synchronize data creating a real-time service fabric, ensuring low-latency in-region responses for clients worldwide. In addition to massive cost savings at scale, HarperDB’s REST, GraphQL, SQL, and real-time interfaces make light work of servicing frontend requirements. Install and manage on your hardware with npm, or have us host your services with HarperDB Cloud. For questions, reach us at hello@harperdb.io.
