This section presents an example of EADS deployment that benefits the user, and an example that does not benefit the user.

[Figure] An example of EADS deployment that benefits the user

EADS is suitable for standard applications, such as high-speed processing of large amounts of data.

Because EADS creates redundant copies of data to achieve high-availability and fault-tolerant systems, it is also suitable for enterprise systems that must provide high reliability.

1.4.1 Using EADS as a write buffer shows an example of using EADS as a write buffer, and 1.4.2 Using EADS as a read cache shows an example of using EADS as a read cache.

EADS is not suitable for atypical applications that require complex queries, such as in SQL, because EADS manages data in a simple format consisting of keys and values.
