AppNexus describes itself as the largest independent real‑time ad marketplace and relies on Aerospike to meet hard persistence and latency needs using SSDs rather than pure flash. Traffic peaks at 2.5 million impressions per second and exceeds 90 billion impressions a day, with clusters sustaining 1–1.5M reads/sec and ~250k writes/sec. Aerospike has been in production four years, debugged in close collaboration with AppNexus, and supports a 24/7 operation with claimed 100% uptime.
