Dynomite is a thin distributed Dynamo layer that adds sharding, multi-datacenter replication, and high availability to storage engines like Redis and Memcached that lack these features natively. It is written in C and runs as a performant proxy layer between clients and key-value stores.

Use cases

  • add multi-datacenter replication to redis
  • shard a memcached cluster
  • make a key-value store highly available
  • proxy redis with distributed dynamo semantics
  • cross-region replication for nosql cache

When to choose

  • you need Dynamo-style replication and sharding on top of Redis or Memcached
  • you want multi-datacenter high availability without changing your storage engine
  • you need a lightweight, performant C proxy layer

When to avoid

  • your storage engine already provides native replication and clustering
  • you need a maintained project with active development
  • you use storage engines other than Redis or Memcached
