MarkLogic Sets the Standard for Modern Database Technology
SAN CARLOS, Calif. --(Business Wire)--
MarkLogic
Corporation, the leading Enterprise NoSQL database platform
provider, today announced the availability of MarkLogic® Version 8 Early
Access Edition. MarkLogic 8 brings together advanced search, semantics,
bitemporal and native JavaScript support into one powerful, agile and
trusted database platform. Companies can now:
-
Get better answers faster through integrated search and query of all
of their data, metadata, and relationships, regardless of the data
type or source;
-
Lower costs and increase agility by easily integrating heterogeneous
data, including relational, unstructured, and richly structured data,
across silos and at massive scale;
-
Rapidly build production-ready applications in weeks versus months or
years to address the needs of the business or organization.
For enterprise customers who value agility but can't compromise on
resiliency, MarkLogic software is the only database platform that
integrates Google (News - Alert)-like search with rich query and semantics into an
intelligent and extensible data layer that works equally well in a data
center or in the cloud. Unlike other NoSQL solutions, MarkLogic provides
ACID transactions, HA, DR, and other hardened features that enterprises
require, along with the scalability and agility they need to accelerate
their business.
"As more complex data, much of it semi-structured, becomes increasingly
important to businesses' daily operations, enterprises are realizing
that they must look beyond relational databases to help them understand,
integrate, and manage all of their data, deriving maximum value in a
simple, yet sophisticated manner," said Carl Olofson, research vice
president at IDC (News - Alert). "MarkLogic has a history of bringing advanced data
management technology to market and many of their customers and partners
are accustomed to managing complex data in an agile manner. As a result,
they have a more mature and creative view of how to manage and use data
than do mainstream database users. MarkLogic 8 offers some very advanced
tools and capabilities, which could expand the market's definition of
enterprise database technology."
MarkLogic 8 key features:
-
Enhanced Developer Experience - Server-side JavaScript and native JSON
support give developers access to all of the powerful capabilities of
MarkLogic software using the most widey adopted language and data
format on the Internet. The new Node.js Client API along with an
enhanced Java API unlocks that power in a natural and powerful way.
-
Robust Semantics Capabilities - MarkLogic's RDF triple store scales
horizontally to manage billions of triples and supports SPARQL 1.1,
the industry standard language for semantics. Unlike other triple
stores, MarkLogic lets users seamlessly combine triples with text,
values, and geospatial elements all in the same query. The new
Inferencing capability lets users automatically discover relationships
in their data.
-
Bitemporal Data Management - Bitemporal data management lets users say
"what they knew" and "when they knew it." This is a requirement for
risk management and auditing in regulated industries, but is also
applicable in any enterprise that relies on historical information -
healthcare, intelligence, and many others.
"At MarkLogic, we have paid close attention to the impact that data has
on today's business. Organizations are required to better understand how
they can more effectively access and put to use all of their data and in
a way that is secure and reliable," said Gary Bloom, chief executive
officer and president of MarkLogic. "With the advancements we have made
in our MarkLogic 8 platform, we are empowering enterprises to think
beyond the impossible and imagine how their data can and will influence
the future of business and application development. We've evolved with
our customers' needs and built a database that is centered on being the
new-generation data management system which delivers opportunities to
integrate, manage and have access to 100 percent of the data regardless
if it is structured or unstructured or if it resides in the enterprise
or outside the organization."
