Xeround Announces Free Version of Popular Cloud Database
Zero-Management, Highly Available MySQL Cloud Database Ideal for Smaller Applications and On-Going Development, Testing and Staging Purposes
(firmenpresse) - MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/07/12 -- , the Cloud Database Company, today announced Xeround FREE, a free version of its popular cloud database for MySQL applications. Xeround FREE provides MySQL users a free, zero-management, highly available cloud database solution in just one click -- without having to install, configure and maintain a MySQL database in the cloud.
Xeround FREE is suitable for smaller applications as well as for on-going development, testing and staging environments. In addition to guaranteeing high availability with its built-in replicas and a unique self-healing architecture, Xeround FREE is also the only true native cloud database -- engineered specifically for the unique cloud environment -- thus avoiding the pitfalls of a traditional MySQL installation in the cloud. Available up to 10MB at no charge, Xeround FREE is initially offered on Amazon EC2 in the US and as an add-on for the Heroku platform, expanding to additional cloud datacenters in the near future.
"Xeround FREE is the direct result of developers asking for a free version of our cloud database service for their MySQL apps," said Razi Sharir, CEO of Xeround. "Now everyone can enjoy a zero-management, simple, always-on database for their apps at no cost -- so developers can experience the least amount of friction while developing in the cloud. Unlike Amazon RDS or other MySQL implementations out there, Xeround's free offering is the only native cloud database, providing high availability and true elasticity with no management or configuration overhead."
For customers that require larger database sizes, higher levels of scalability, additional support and SLA, Xeround is announcing two additional editions of the company's cloud database solution: Xeround BASIC and Xeround PRO.
Xeround BASIC is ideal for medium-sized applications in need of high availability and scalability in the cloud. Xeround BASIC is limited up to 250MB and is offered in tiered pricing starting at $17/month.
Xeround PRO, the commercial version of Xeround's database-as-a-service that , is suitable for mission-critical, larger-scale applications that require unlimited scalability, high availability SLA, scheduled backups and more.
Xeround PRO already has more than 300 paying customers and boasts a complete end-to-end solution for seamlessly running MySQL applications in the cloud. Xeround PRO also includes the industry's first auto-scaling feature for the database tier -- allowing it to automatically scale across multiple nodes when more resources are needed, and shrink back down when underutilized.
Xeround PRO is offered in a pay-per-use model starting at $0.21 for GB/hour of data (with a minimum charge for 0.5GB), and $0.43 for GB of data transfer.
Both Xeround BASIC and Xeround PRO are available on Xeround's Amazon EC2, Rackspace and Heroku datacenters.
