SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/15/15 -- SPARK SUMMIT WEST, Booth #K6 -- MemSQL (www.memsql.com), the leader in real-time databases for transactions and analytics, will present the company's concept and design of "MemCity," a futuristic metropolitan city where home device energy consumption across a metropolis are tracked, processed and analyzed in real-time. The entire real-time data pipeline and visualization for 1.4 million households, approximately the size of Chicago, runs on four Amazon EC2 nodes at a hardware cost of $2.35 per hour or $21,000 per year.

The MemCity showcase tracks -- by the minute -- each device within households according to timestamp, device identification and watts consumed. From there, MemSQL integrates the data points into Apache Spark for further enrichment with geographical coordinates and zip codes. Visual representation, mapping and charting is presented through Tableau.

MemCity is built using three distributed in-memory systems, quickly emerging as a real-time trinity of data pipelines: Apache Kafka, Apache Spark and MemSQL. First is the message queue of Apache Kafka, which enables publish and subscribe messaging. Next is Apache Spark, which provides real-time transformation and data enrichment. Finally, MemSQL provides a persistence layer for Spark and the ability to rapidly stand up analytics dashboards and applications based on SQL. In MemCity, Tableau serves as the visualization layer.

With this showcase, MemSQL brings to reality a true Internet of Things -- the analysis of real-time data gathered within a smart and connected city of the future. Modern in-memory database applications like MemCity enable urban planners and energy companies to see what is possible, and economically viable, for smarter energy systems and efficient energy consumption. MemCity will be showcased this week during the Spark Summit West conference in San Francisco at MemSQL booth #K6.

"We designed MemCity as a prototype of the future and the powerful possibilities real-time data analysis within a 'smart city' can bring to our lives," said Eric Frenkiel, CEO of MemSQL. "Today, real-time solutions like MemSQL and Spark enable enterprises to gather deep and meaningful insights from millions of sensors. Tomorrow, we become an even more connected world, using data to make better and smarter decisions. Being able to do this at such a low cost will make these new applications accessible."
