The Month Of April In Review

May 1, 2012

It was a busy month for us nuonians. With spring slowly creeping its way back in, we wrapped up our West Coast sponsoring session at the Percona Live: MySql and Expo conference and joined forces with fellow attendees at Under The Radar.

With featured Silver Sponsors such as Facebook and Google by our side at the 2012 Percona Live: MySql and Expo Conference, NuoDB was pretty happy to be included amongst them. “It’s not a bad day when you see your logo printed right next to Google and on the same line as Facebook,” CEO and Co-Founder, Barry Morris, said.

With the start of a new week, we also decided to announce our new office move. NuoDB is no longer located at 18 Hurley Street in Cambridge, MA., but rather, in a very cool new office building located just off the Charles River.

With a few more conferences scheduled for us this month, it’s time for our Marketing & Branding Team to get cracking again and head over to All About The Cloud, happening next week, May 8th-10th, 2012, in San Francisco.

Labelled as having the prospects of “transforming the cloud,” NuoDB – a NextGen Finalist, is pretty excited to be included in this event. “All of the firms selected as NextGen companies are young businesses that offer innovative online software and services.” Indeed we do!

Goodbye 18 Hurley, Hello First Street!

DBAs can define and manage different user roles and access rules for the system

Announced separately today, NuoDB has launched an Open Source Initiative by making several of its client drivers and APIs available on Github for community development.

Bob Krier, R&D Manager at Axway and user of NuoDB since Beta 1, commented on this latest beta program launch. “My company and I are very excited about the technology behind NuoDB as it promises to revolutionize enterprise software in ways other database platforms have fallen short. We are very excited about the new features in Beta 6 and look forward to its release.”

NuoDB is a new kind of database that is specifically architected to scale effortlessly on the cloud without compromising on any of the features or guarantees of relational databases. The NuoDB database is SQL-compliant, highly resilient, requires minimal database administration, guarantees the integrity of transactions, and scales out and in effortlessly on commodity cloud-based resources to deliver high performance at web-scale with highly efficient and flexible resource utilization.

Unlike every other database, NuoDB is built for the cloud from the ground up on an Emergent Architecture – a shared nothing, asynchronous, peer-to-peer approach that is ideal for the cloud, yet it delivers the power, reliability and functionality of a traditional database.

“We have come a long way since launching our restricted beta program in July 2011,” said Barry Morris, founder and CEO of NuoDB. “Since then, we have signed up over 250 beta customers, added tons of new features based on their feedback, and greatly improved the overall quality and stability through rigorous product testing. Based on all the user feedback, I am very confident that over the course of this year developers will rapidly adopt NuoDB to migrate existing and build new web-scale applications.”

Emergent Architecture Swoops GigaOM Structure:Data

March 26, 2012

New York, NY, March 22, 2012.

NuoDB CEO & Co-Founder, Barry Morris, joined by Marketing & Branding Manager, Maxime Summit.

It was a great conference day for NuoDB at this years GigaOM Structure:Data Conference. CEO and Co-Founder, Barry Morris, rocked the house with only 5 minutes on stage.

“The reception to our presentation on Emergent Architecture, was beyond our expectations and it was a privilege to be included amongst some of the industries main leaders in technology and data management.”

Started by Om Malik and published by Giga Omni Media, Inc., GigaOM is one of the hottest Tech events out there these days. With over 750 attendees this year, GigaOM’s Structure:Data Conference marked its 2^nd year in NYC.

Exploring the technical and business opportunities spurred by the growth of big data, storage needs and new revenue opportunities, NuoDB fit right in with a presentation that was both “exemplary and innovative” as CEO Barry Morris targeted his ‘Big Idea’ presentation on emergent database technology:

“The database world needs a Big Idea, architecturally speaking. The perfect storm of Big Data, Massive Concurrency and Very Low Latency presents a challenge well beyond the out of reach of historical architectures. The best candidate for that Big Idea in database architecture is the idea of Emergence, the idea that complex database behaviors can be the result of simple interactions by participants at a peer-to-peer level. Think of a flock of birds and you will get the idea.”
