Equifax - Providing agile services and dependable data for lenders

Equifax is best known for providing credit lenders with the information they use to make consumer loans. When a top lender announced major changes in the amount and type of data they required, Equifax had to act fast to update their system. They decided to switch to a NoSQL database to get the high performance and scalability needed to provide 5-millisecond response times while handling 1.5 billion constantly changing records. A key factor in choosing Couchbase over MongoDB™ and Redis was that only Couchbase enabled Equifax to scale individual workloads separately.
