NoSQL / document.

Elastic document and key-value stores for low-latency, high-throughput workloads.

▥ Databases
Overview

Horizontally scalable document and key-value stores with single-digit-millisecond latency at any scale — for flexible schemas and throughput a single SQL node can't sustain.

Single-digit-millisecond at any scale, flexible schema — and on the same platform as the model.

For user data, sessions, events and catalogs, a document/key-value store that partitions automatically and answers in single-digit milliseconds is the right tool, and Aether's does exactly that — billions of items, high write rates, flexible schema with no migrations, and global tables for local reads worldwide. What it adds over a standalone NoSQL service is location: it lives on the platform with your analytics and the model, so the operational data and the AI that acts on it aren't separated by a vendor boundary.

Elastic by default, global when you need it.

It partitions transparently as you grow, so you don't capacity-plan a sharding strategy up front, and global tables replicate for low-latency local reads and resilience. The data structures and access patterns you'd expect from a managed NoSQL store are all here — the difference is what's reachable from it.

Operational data the model can actually use.

When the document store, the lakehouse and the model are one platform, the user profile a request just read can be enriched by the model and written back, or streamed into analytics, without an export. Operational and analytical and AI workloads share governance and identity instead of each holding a copy. It deploys managed or air-gapped like the rest of the catalog.

Worked example

Read a profile, enrich it with the model, and write it back — one platform, no export.

import { aether } from "@aether/sdk";

const users = aether.nosql.table("users");
const u = await users.get({ id });

u.segment = await aether.classify(u.activity, SEGMENTS);  // model, on-platform
await users.put(u);                                       // back in single-digit ms

The classification happens on the same platform as the store, so enriching a record is a function call, not an export to an external model and a write-back pipeline.

How it works

Three steps to running.

01
Create a table

Define a key and go; the store partitions automatically as you grow.

02
Read & write fast

Single-digit-millisecond access at any scale, flexible schema.

03
Go global

Multi-region global tables for local reads and resilience.

What you get

NoSQL / document, in full.

Elastic scale

Partition automatically to billions of items and high write rates.

Flexible schema

Store documents and key-value data without migrations.

Low latency

Single-digit-millisecond reads and writes at scale.

Global tables

Multi-region replication for local reads and resilience.

API-first

Provision it in a few lines.

Every service is reachable from the same SDK, CLI and infrastructure-as-code — one identity, one bill, one audit trail across the whole catalog.

import { aether } from "@aether/sdk";

// Provision nosql / document and query it
const nosql_document = await aether.databases.create({
  service: "nosql-document",
  name: "app",
  region: "us-1",
});

const rows = await nosql_document.query(`select * from events limit 10`);

03

Event and catalog data

Why one platform

On one model, not stitched together.

The usual stack runs nosql / document in one product, the model in another and the data in a third — and the seams between them are the cost. Aether Cloud runs it on the same platform that serves the model, governs your identity and deploys into your boundary, with the rest of the catalog one hop away.

One platform

No stitching a vector DB to one place, a warehouse to another and a model to a third — nosql / document sits next to the rest of the catalog, one identity, one bill.

The model is here

The provider that runs Aether runs your nosql / document — so the data and the model never leave the same governed boundary to talk to each other.

Built on demand

Need a capability that isn’t here yet? The model writes and deploys it into the same boundary — the catalog is a starting point, not a ceiling.

FAQ

Good to know.

How does this compare to DynamoDB or MongoDB Atlas?

Elastic document and key-value storage at single-digit-ms latency — on the platform that runs your model and analytics.

Does it scale writes?

Yes — automatic partitioning handles high write rates to billions of items.

Can I read locally worldwide?

Yes — global tables replicate for local reads and resilience.
