Talk:SolidDB
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Given there are at least three references to solidDB in Wikipedia, it seems to me there should be some minimal information here. I’m reluctant to enter it myself without first seeking advice, since I work for the company which offers it.
Keeping “NPOV” in mind, here is what I came up with:
solidDB is a relational database management system offered by Solid Information Technology (Solid). solidDB includes an in-memory database as well as a traditional database, which both employ the same SQL interface, and a high availability option. Companies using solidDB include Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco Systems, EMC Corporation, Hewlett-Packard, Nokia and Siemens AG.
Solid also offers solidDB for MySQL, a version of MySQL that includes a solidDB storage engine. solidDB for MySQL is open source software available under the GNU General Public License.
Solid is a privately held company originally founded in Helsinki, Finland in 1992, and is now headquartered in Cupertino, California. Investors include CapMan and Apax Partners.

Some items I didn’t include:
- Solid releases high-performance storage engine for MySQL (http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2006/121906-solid-storage-sql.html).
- Solid claims over 3 million deployments of solidDB (http://www.solidtech.com/en/company/in-memorydatabase/overview.asp).
- Red Herring named Solid one of its top 20 Open Source startups (http://www.redherring.com/Home/18126).
