Improvements in SharkScope’s Poker Performance

Tokutek, a US database performance specialist, announced that they have struck a deal with SharkScope, an internet poker tournament results database, to use its TokuDB performance engine as a means to improve data performance. SharkScope will have the ability to monitor one million daily tournaments and give players data in real time all the while reducing server space by 50%. SharkScope is helpful to players by providing data in order to make smart wagers at the tables. Performance features include: * Information delivered in less than two seconds rather than the prior 20 seconds required * Storage servers and associated costs reduced by 50% * No code changes required "TokuDB gives us faster search results, a much smaller database and fewer servers to manage," said Steve Mayes, CEO SharkScope.
