Distributed database has reduced downtime and routes heavy traffic across multiple nodes
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for YugabyteDB Aeon revolves around problems we face with traditional databases like MSSQL , MySQL , and PostgreSQL because YugabyteDB Aeon gives us the flexibility when we need multiple nodes, facilitating the distributed architecture where if one node is having significant load and crashes, the other nodes can take on that load and work in a distributed way. That is the major part of YugabyteDB Aeon, and it also works in my current project, helping us alleviate the issues we face regarding the single node we are currently using without backup for different nodes to route our traffic.
Although I do not have extensive expertise on YugabyteDB Aeon and did not explore it thoroughly, that is the key takeaway from YugabyteDB Aeon.
A specific example of how I used YugabyteDB Aeon in my project involves our usage of MSSQL , which is a traditional SQL architecture-based database, and I find that YugabyteDB Aeon's distributed architecture really helps in our production case where we are experiencing a single node that goes down when the traffic is too much and without backup or pre-production environment. If I were using YugabyteDB Aeon, I would implement my database to YugabyteDB Aeon itself, which would solve the issues we encounter.
What is most valuable?
In my opinion, the distributed capability is one of the best features of YugabyteDB Aeon, which is the core of the database.
YugabyteDB Aeon is compatible with and is basically a cloud-native, distributed SQL database.
YugabyteDB Aeon has positively impacted my organization by reducing our downtime and effort when the server goes down since we only need to restart it and ensure all utilities are up. With YugabyteDB Aeon, we do not need to go through that restarting process; we just need to route the traffic to different nodes and distributed clusters in our cloud-native environment.
My thoughts on YugabyteDB Aeon's AI capabilities in terms of governance and security are positive, as it works nicely, providing a platform compatible with various AI tools such as GHC, Bard, OpenAI, and ChatGPT, making it more interesting and explorable. Whenever I lack context about any option in YugabyteDB Aeon, I can simply ping the AI for clarification.

If I were using YugabyteDB Aeon, I would implement my database to YugabyteDB Aeon itself, which would solve the issues we encounter.
I have not experienced or had extensive hands-on work with YugabyteDB Aeon, but it was a great experience from my side.
YugabyteDB Aeon addresses my issue of the production server going down under heavy load without backup, which was quite hectic. With YugabyteDB Aeon in place, I do not need to worry about system downtimes, as we can easily transfer traffic to different distributed servers. There is always some improvement required for any tool, and different perspectives can lead to enhancements. I rate YugabyteDB Aeon as a nine out of ten.
Global medical data has been managed securely while multi-cloud workflows run smoothly
What is our primary use case?
My main use case for YugabyteDB Aeon is that it is a multi-cloud PostgreSQL database, and I work as a DBA to record data, including unstructured data, and maintain storage. For a specific example of how I use YugabyteDB Aeon in my daily work, I can say this is a database that is really useful. For instance, it enables medical-specific data to be spread globally without compromising local data residency. YugabyteDB Aeon has geo-partitioning capabilities, so we can have our DBA oversee this. By utilizing a single global table instead of a standard regional database, it works on a cluster as well.
What is most valuable?
The best features YugabyteDB Aeon offers are that it is a fully managed YugabyteDB service that allows running a YugabyteDB cluster in a multi-cloud environment.
The multi-cloud capability of YugabyteDB Aeon positively impacts my workflow, as we have different subscriptions where we have to work. YugabyteDB Aeon has positively impacted my organization by being an open-source project that helps work on open mobility as well. The main features that stand out are geo-partitioning and applications in a long capability.

How was the initial setup?
I find it acceptable to integrate YugabyteDB Aeon with my existing systems and applications.
YugabyteDB Aeon handles failover and disaster recovery in my experience by working for database recovery, and we perform HA, geo-partitioning, and all related functions.
What about the implementation team?
YugabyteDB Aeon is compatible with other tools or databases in my environment and has integrated well, but this information I will not share with you.
The monitoring and alerting capability of YugabyteDB Aeon meets my needs, as it has multiple built-in dashboards and tracks user structure, query performance, intelligent recommendations, and out-of-the-box integrations with third-party applications such as Hill to monitor.
The backup and restore functionality with YugabyteDB Aeon has different facilities available; mainly, there are third-party applications such as Commvault for backup.
What was our ROI?
I have not seen a return on investment from YugabyteDB Aeon; I cannot share any relevant metrics such as money saved, time saved, or fewer employees.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I do not know about the experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for YugabyteDB Aeon because it will be managed by the account department.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing YugabyteDB Aeon, I evaluated other options; as such, we are not using AI options other than YugabyteDB, and after YugabyteDB Aeon, I will work on multiple AI tools such as Teradata , Cloudera, and all.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate YugabyteDB Aeon an eight out of ten.
I choose eight out of ten because YugabyteDB Aeon does not work on a large scale level database; it works better for small databases or we can say cloud databases.
Regarding YugabyteDB Aeon's AI capabilities, I think that there are no particular built-in features where we can use it for risk governance and security.
Concerning YugabyteDB Aeon's AI capabilities, for cloud-native software applications, it will be reliable, but we cannot say it will be reliable for bare-metal clusters.

The documentation and learning resources for YugabyteDB Aeon are useful, as the knowledge articles provided by YugabyteDB Aeon are useful but need consolidated data on what is required.
My advice for others looking into using YugabyteDB Aeon is that you can use YugabyteDB Aeon if you are using the public cloud, not on the private cloud or private infrastructure. My overall rating for YugabyteDB Aeon is eight out of ten.
Building RAG workflows with simple cluster setup has improved my data exploration
What is our primary use case?
I use YugabyteDB Aeon intermittently rather than regularly. I used it during the first month of my internship, and then two months ago, I built a RAG system using it.
I built a RAG system with YugabyteDB Aeon where users ask questions and relevant data from YugabyteDB Aeon tables is retrieved to provide a response. We store user details in a YugabyteDB Aeon table for the implementation of that RAG system.
Since I have not used YugabyteDB Aeon in my work, I have used it for my personal use cases. It is good and was easy to operate due to Python packages that make it straightforward to use.
What is most valuable?
YugabyteDB Aeon has a cluster that is easy to start. They provide AWS and Google Cloud Storage for clusters, which is really good.
Setting up a cluster in YugabyteDB Aeon is not difficult. It requires information about data consumption, CPU storage, the number of threads and cores in the cluster, and RAM usage. However, you may not know these details initially. For a free trial, I used it and found it very easy to start by simply clicking on the website and beginning to create a cluster. You do not need to configure CPU usage or any RAM details; it is predefined and ready to use.
I have some knowledge about distributed systems, and YugabyteDB Aeon does have nodes. However, the documentation is not very good. If I were from a different field and wanted to work with a database, I would not find it user-friendly. If the documentation were generalized, it would be easier for all users across all domains.
The easy operation and Python packages from YugabyteDB Aeon have saved my time. YugabyteDB Aeon provides psycopg binary packages specifically for YugabyteDB Aeon, which we can use to make a connection and perform read and write operations. Due to that package available in Python, we can connect and use YugabyteDB Aeon as we would any other database.
What needs improvement?
The documentation for YugabyteDB Aeon needs to be improved. It does not come across as beginner-friendly documentation. If someone from a different field were to use YugabyteDB Aeon, they would find it difficult to get started. Other than that, it is really good; the system is good, and the architecture and features are really good.
I do not know how large the YugabyteDB Aeon community is because I have not heard of it or come across any community posts. I do not think any other features need to be improved.
An important issue I faced while using YugabyteDB Aeon was that it needs to follow a sequence like one, two, three, four, and so on, but YugabyteDB Aeon does not follow this pattern in a certain aspect.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working for more than one and a half years in my current field.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
YugabyteDB Aeon is stable in my experience.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
YugabyteDB Aeon's scalability is really good due to the distributed system architecture.
What other advice do I have?
I would recommend that others who want better scaling of their data use the distributed system feature in YugabyteDB Aeon. The cluster setup is not difficult; it is very easy. These are all the things I would recommend to someone if they are going to use YugabyteDB Aeon. I would rate this product highly based on my overall experience.
