What's a micro-database?
Think 'data lake of one'
A Micro-Database unifies and stores all the data for 1 business entity, like a specific customer, order, or product – from all your source systems.
Complete, for trust
The Micro-Database continually syncs with your underlying sources to hold fresh data, and applies your data quality and privacy controls on the fly to ensure your data is always governed.
Separate, for security and scale
All Micro-Databases are isolated from each other and individually secured, each with its own unique encryption key. This makes data leakage and mass data breaches virtually impossible. There's never any contention between Micro-Databases, even at a scale of thousands of concurrent queries.
Separate, for security and scale
Separation means security. All Micro-Databases are isolated from each other and individually secured, each with its own unique encryption key. This makes data leakage and mass data breaches virtually impossible.
Separation also means scale, since there is never any contention between Micro-Databases, even at a scale of thousands of concurrent queries.
Micro-sized, for speed
Each Micro-Database is compressed by up to 90% for low storage costs and I/O latency. It’s also cached into memory for split-second processing and response times.
Your data, always AI-ready
- 01 Accessible in ms
- 02 In sync
- 03 Secured
- 04 Compliant
- 05 Distributed
- 06 Cached or persisted
01Accessible in ms
Accessible in milliseconds, by authorized data consumers, in any method: SQL, APIs, CDC, messaging, and streaming.
02In sync
The Micro-Database synced with the underlying source systems based on user-defined policies.
03Secured
Each Micro-Database is secured with its own, unique 256-bit encryption key, ensuring that a mass data breach is an impossible event.
04Compliant
Personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive data is masked or tokenized in flight, ensuring compliance with data privacy and security regulations.
05Distributed
Micro-Databases are stored in a distributed data store, like Apache Cassandra or Microsoft Azure Blob Storage, and are therefore highly scalable.
06Cached or persisted
The Micro-Database can be cached into memory, persisted, or virtualized, for optimal performance.
Let generative data products do the job
Generative data products manage billions of Micro-Databases concurrently. K2view lets you define the metadata for a data product to achieve its goals, including:
- Micro-Database schema per business entity
- Data integration and delivery methods
- Sync rules
- Data transformation logic
- Governance policies
