S8 Bonus: Rewriting Database Physics: Engineering a Hybrid Memory NoSQL Engine for Petabyte-Scale AI Inference with Srini Srinivasan, Co-Founder & CTO of Aerospike
Jun 14, 2023 · Season 8 · 26 min
Highly performant, low latency database
Srini Srinivasan grew up in India, during a time when you could go do whatever you wanted during the summer. So he explored and experienced many things, tech and non-tech. He was very into sports and competition, and wanted to be a cricket super star. He didn't start coding until he went off to college, and interestingly enough, there were many startups formed from his class. In the early days, he really loved the Assembly language (which I can attest is not the norm!).
Srini was working in a company focused on mobile and adtech related work. During this time, he discovered that all database tech existing were lacking. He and his co-founder decided that they were the right pair to build a better system.
This is the creation story of Aerospike.
