No, we haven’t considered it yet. But it looks interesting. Don’t understand me wrong, I like Phoenix. When it works, it is a great database and meets our requirements. But we didn’t get rid of the problems (and when I look at the answers from Jaanai and Flavio, we are not the only one). We hoped that with Phoenix 5 the problems are reduced, but at the moment it didn’t looks like.
We have not yet searched for alternatives, but are beginning to keep our eyes open. Von: jesse [mailto:chat2je...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Dienstag, 25.

We are quite unhappy with the reliability of Phoenix. We migrated from Oracle because of the performance (we have tables with up to 200M records, each record up to 30 MB in size, up to 10 selective columns). Phoenix is really much faster than Oracle (20 nodes cluster). But we have problems with • Phoenix totally hanging, only restart helps (We were able to reduce this from daily to monthly) • incorrect indices, need rebuild • select statements not producing the expected (specified) results • Upserts sporadically not working without error message • Some not reproducible errors • … We are thinking about switching to another database, but the question is: what is better (reliable and performant)? Conclusion: With the current status of Phoenix, I would never use it again. Regards Martin Von: jesse [mailto:chat2je...@gmail.com<mailto:chat2je...@gmail.com>] Gesendet: Samstag, 22.

I stumbled on this post: https://medium.com/@vkrava4/fighting-with-apache-phoenix-secondary-indexes-163495bcb361 and the bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5287 I had a similar very frustrating experience with Phoenix, In addition to various performance issues, you can found one of my posts about the reliability issue on the mail-list. https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/231b175fce8811d474cceb1fe270a3dd6b30c9eff2150ac42ddef0dc@%3Cuser.phoenix.apache.org%3E just wondering others experience if you could share ________________________________ FIZ Karlsruhe - Leibniz-Institut für Informationsinfrastruktur GmbH.
