See Bill’s latest Forbes article on forbes.com: “The Unseen Infrastructure Powering the Digital Economy.” Written by CEO Bill Bain, a member of the Forbes Technology Council, this article explores how in-memory computing powers the speed, reliability, and security behind the digital economy.
The digital world demands instant results, leaving little room for delay or disruption. Customers expect information to appear the moment they tap, click, or swipe, whether completing a purchase, checking a flight’s status, or transferring funds. Traditional databases were never designed for this level of responsiveness, and latency quickly accumulates as data is written or retrieved. By processing data directly in memory, organizations can respond in milliseconds, support millions of users at once, and enable faster decision-making that shapes customer experiences and performance.
Organizations that succeed with in-memory computing design for scale from the start, build for uninterrupted operations, automate management to handle changing workloads, and ensure that bottlenecks are addressed. As online applications increasingly rely on real-time data and integrate technologies such as generative AI to deliver continuous insights, in-memory computing is becoming essential for streamlining and accelerating data management.
