Author: joeleslie. At NuoDB, we’ve not only been working hard to improve upon on our distributed SQL database engine, but also to make it easier to adopt NuoDB into CI/CD pipelines. NuoDB is a ANSI standard and ACID compliant SQL database that is suitable for all common deployment models, such as bare-metal, virtual machines, cloud and hybrid-cloud, and most recently container-based environments, such as Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. At its core, NuoDB is designed to be highly scalable and fault-tolerant with the ability to load-balance across a distributed architecture.If you would like to try NuoDB’s Community Edition (CE) in Docker, ...

Author: . We typically talk about transactions in the context of Data Manipulation Language (DML), but the same principles apply when we talk about Data Definition Language (DDL). As databases increasingly include transactional DDL, we should stop and think about the history of transactional DDL. Transactional DDL can help with application availability by allowing you perform multiple modifications in a single operation, making software upgrades simpler. You’re less likely to find yourself dealing with a partially upgraded system that requires your database administrator (DBA) to go in and fix everything by hand, losing hours of their time and slowing your ...

Author: joeleslie. In a blog post earlier last year (2019), I outlined how to deploy the NuoDB database in Docker containers. To follow that up, my second blog on this subject demonstrated how to scale and visually monitor a NuoDB database to easily meet ever changing SQL application read and write workload demands. This third blog is for the more SQL savvy types who don't just dabble in SQL, but work with SQL nearly every day and require the best SQL productivity tools to do their jobs better. If that is you, I trust you will find this a short, ... Read More

Author: ariff. Recently we hosted a webinar discussing the different scaling options for databases. There are a lot of databases on the market, so it’s important to choose one that offers the scalability and consistency you’re looking for, and that’s going to vary based on the application and deployment in question. To learn more about scale up vs. scale out, eventual vs. strong consistency, and the trade offs different database solutions make to optimize scalability, please watch the webinar or read more about it in this white paper. During the webinar, we had several excellent questions that I answer in this ...

Author: mkysel. What does NuoDB do?TL;DR: NuoDB is a distributed SQL database.  NuoDB is a SQL database, it is fully transactional, fully ACID, and fully consistent. This is a stark contrast to NoSQL solutions that have emerged in the last decade. NuoDB is distributed, meaning that it is able to scale horizontally and automatically keeps multiple replicas in sync. Having multiple replicas of a database is a strict requirement for any service having 99.99% or better availability guarantees. Do you run in the cloud? NuoDB runs on all public clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.), on private clouds, and on-prem. We ... Read More
