Aiven for Dragonfly vs Aiven for Caching benchmarking

What's this blog post about?

In a head-to-head comparison of two in-memory data stores offered by Aiven - Aiven for Dragonfly and Aiven for Caching, the former outperforms the latter in terms of throughput while maintaining sub-5ms latency. Aiven for Dragonfly leverages all available CPUs, achieving a 7x throughput advantage over RedisĀ®. However, it faces a trade-off with a 30% throughput dip during snapshotting. On the other hand, Aiven for Caching boasts exceptional latency performance but is subject to concerns about its future due to changes in its licensing model. The choice between the two largely depends on specific needs such as scalability, performance requirements, workload, cost considerations, and community support.
