Case Study: Tmap of SK Planet achieves real-time traffic leadership and 250% faster processing with Altibase

How Tmap integrated Altibase and has become the leader in navigation

Tmap of SK Planet is a location-based service provider with over 15 million subscribers that needed a real-time database to deliver up-to-the-minute traffic and transit information. Their existing open-source databases could not collect or process real-time traffic at scale, causing slowing performance, declining customer satisfaction, high TCO, and costly migrations; Tmap selected Altibase and its in-memory database capabilities to address these challenges.

Tmap adopted Altibase in 2011, using Altibase’s in-memory feature to collect, process and disseminate traffic data with high throughput and low latency. Altibase enabled Tmap to serve real-time traffic information at over 500 TPS with a 250% speed improvement versus the prior solution, reduce CPU usage to about 20% of system capacity (lowering TCO), and reliably handle growing workloads—helping Tmap increase customer satisfaction and become a leader in navigation.
