Pliant optimizes data storage, overhead, and retrieval by utilizing a patented distributed data storage technique that only stores unique values.
|
|
|
By only storing unique values, overhead is reduced and structured data overhead requirements actually decrease with scale.
|
|
|
Pliant distributes data elements across many disks to minimize data contention and allows simpler hardware use.
|
|
|
Pliant also associates data elements on disks in an optimized manner that minimizes total disk reads.
|
|
|
This approach can handle terabyte (or higher) data quantities.
