Elastra delivers scalable OLTP. For Real?
Elastra now offers scalable OLTP via Amazon's compute cloud.
Supported Db's include:
MySQL
Postgresql
EnterpriseDB
When Elastra first decloaked late 2007, they were all about scaling read-only BI databases, which is the easy problem to solve and I wasn't very excited.
This Enterprise DB press release, however, implies that they've got a point-and-clicky active-active-active-etc cluster technology, with automatic-versioning for ~ $400/mo (per server).
Quote the release:
EnterpriseDB, the Oracle-compatible database company, today announced EnterpriseDB Advanced Server Cloud Edition, a version of the company�s flagship RDBMS that is built on the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) Web services. EnterpriseDB has selected Elastra, the world�s first provider of elastic relational databases on demand, as its premier cloud computing software partner. Elastra�s Elastic Database Technology enables EnterpriseDB Advanced Server to run in a virtual, highly scalable, cloud-computing environment
Wow.
