Riak[1] is a NoSQL database implementing the principles from Amazon's Dynamo paper.[2]
Riak has a pluggable backend for its core shard-partitioned storage, with the default storage backend being Bitcask as of the 0.12 release.[3] Riak also has built-in MapReduce with native support for both JavaScript (using the SpiderMonkey runtime) and Erlang, while supporting a variety of additional language drivers such as Python, Java, PHP and Ruby.[4]
On February 21, 2012, Basho announced Riak v1.1. Riak 1.1 included Riaknostic, enhanced error logging and reporting, improved resiliency for large clusters, and a new graphical operations and monitoring interface called Riak Control.
On March 27, 2012, Basho launched Riak CS (Cloud Storage). Riak CS offers multi-tenancy, metering, large-object support and an S3-compatible API on top of Riak.
Basho announced the general availability of Riak 1.4 on July 10, 2013. [5]
Riak is used by thousands of companies worldwide, including over 25% of the Fortune 50.[6] Examples include Symantec, Best Buy, Workday, Voxer, Braintree, Bump, Boeing, Comcast, AOL, Ask.com, Yammer, Yandex, AT&T, Datapipe, and many more.[7]
