How is the Heimdall Proxy Unique?

• Read/Write splitting with ACID Compliance
• Automated Query Caching and Splitting for queries in transactions.
• Limit Connections Per-user and Per-database instance; with LDAP integration
• X  Other proxies do not guarantee data consistency
• Check out our webinar.

Queries are routed to the writer/reader instances without code changes. We load balance across readers for better utilization. Users receive the most up-to-date data with our replication lag detection.

Automated Query Caching: Reduces latency, result sets are cached to the storage of your choice (e.g. Redis) Automated invalidation is supported to guarantee fresh data. Deployment requires zero code changes.

Connection Pooling: Multiple client connections are associated to a database connection. Limit backend connections per user and per database. 

Connection Multiplexing: Backend connections are established for only active, non-idle queries. The net result is lower total memory, and reduced database costs.

Upon a failure, we queue up the front-end connection and transparently route to the standby instance. This greatly reduces application errors and exceptions. Hence, failover is transparent to the user; not so with a TCP/IP load balancer.
