MariaDB Raises the Bar in Developer Enablement and DevOps Productivity
MariaDB(R) Enterprise Summer 2015 Release Speeds Deployments With Docker Containers, Chef Recipes and Cookbooks, and MaxScale(TM) Event Triggers
(firmenpresse) - SAN FRANCISCO, CA and HELSINKI, FINLAND -- (Marketwired) -- 07/15/15 -- , a recognized leader in open source database solutions for high availability, scalability and performance, today announced the Summer 2015 release of MariaDB Enterprise, which was designed to accelerate deployment of open source DBMS applications and to improve reliability and security for DevOps. The Summer 2015 release builds on MariaDB's leadership position as the new "M" in LAMP, having displaced MySQL as the default database in the Red Hat and SUSE Linux distributions. MariaDB is also included in Pivotal Cloud Foundry, Rackspace and other cloud stacks, and it is the database of choice for IBM POWER8.
MariaDB Enterprise, which is provided as a subscription, includes curated and hardened server binaries based on the leading open source MariaDB community server, along with a selection of tools, connectors, subscription services and customer portal to address the needs of mission-critical applications. In addition, MariaDB Enterprise offers users the option to deploy MaxScale™, a database-aware proxy platform that provides capabilities such as load balancing, sharding and firewall protection without the need to modify existing applications.
According to Gartner, "We find many of our clients adopting a dual-RDBMS strategy: an open-source RDBMS combined with one of the commercial DBMS engines. We also find that many clients are beginning to use OSDBMS for more applications than originally planned -- and that vendors are eager to tell us about their "expanding footprint" after their first few deployments are in place in an organization. We believe this trend will continue so that, by 2018, more than 70% of new in-house applications will be developed on an OSDBMS."(1) Gartner goes on to state, "Information leaders who opt for an open-source DBMS (OSDBMS) licensing model can benefit from much lower costs than using a commercial model, even with today's hosted cloud and database as a service (dbPaaS) offerings."
"In just five years, the adoption of MariaDB for new applications and the migration to MariaDB from MySQL and other RDBMSs has been tremendous," said Patrik Sallner, CEO of MariaDB. "We enable our customers to extend their database solutions to address high availability, scalability and performance at considerable total cost of ownership (TCO) savings. Now with the Summer 2015 release of MariaDB Enterprise, our customers and partners can realize even further gains through developer enablement and DevOps productivity."
The MariaDB Enterprise Summer 2015 release includes enhancements in key areas:
Developer Enablement and DevOps Productivity
Tools: Docker Containers, Chef Recipes & Cookbooks
Ability to launch email notifications and external scripts via MaxScale event triggers
Hardened and curated MariaDB Enterprise server binaries
Reliability and Security
Client-side SSL support in MaxScale
Integrated failure detection and failover with MaxScale
Scalability:
MaxScale binlog server extended to support MariaDB 10 master and slaves
Performance:
Optimized performance binaries for MariaDB Enterprise Cluster 5.5 and 10.0 on RHEL / CentOS 6 & 7, which can increase performance by 15%
Customer experience:
Online subscription management through the MariaDB customer portal has been extended to allow management of all third party and notification keys through the portal.
"MariaDB's Summer release is well aligned with the trend by enterprises to adopt and use multiple data platforms in concert; no one platform can do all things," said John Myers, Managing Research Director at Enterprise Management Associates (EMA). "As customers look for faster time to implementation and a shorter time to insight from their data, MariaDB's elastic database platform's new functionality enables organizations to implement and derive value more rapidly."
"Replacing MySQL with MariaDB improved our performance by 20-25%, increased our uptime, and resolved our stability issues," said Mohammad Saleh, Director of IT, Retail Applications, Golfsmith International. "As an online retailer, we are pleased that MariaDB has delivered on mission critical issues for our business."
