About Betfair
As one of the world’s largest online sports betting providers, Betfair uses numerous applications to serve over 4 million funded accounts across 140 countries. To eliminate unnecessary complexity, the company moved many of their applications from Oracle to NoSQL databases. When Cassandra and Memcached didn’t live up to their expectations, Betfair switched to Couchbase for the scalability, high performance, easy integration, and continuous delivery they needed to process over 30,000 bets per minute.
