Mobile vision, short and pair with IBM partnership makes NoSQL vendor 10gen

Mobile apps increase data management has created a tension in the world. A lot of businesses already use to manage their affairs and clean mobile applications and data to the appropriate relational database is used to handle non-relational database scalability between fast and loose is broken.


To cope with such stress, IBM open source NoSQL MongoDB database system 10gen, a new collaboration with commercial vendors are stepping into the field. Purpose? Enterprises already manage their business data, where with legacy databases to bridge the gap between new tech business online.

Database odd couple

To talk to each other is impossible to achieve such a system, but it can be painful: Data and Cross Conversion of database queries in a concrete application programming interfaces (APIs) and data connection Maybe without the weak, and the lash-ups like this can fail tasked with production workloads. The Homer Simpson appear for dinner in Downton Abbey is a bit like: communication is possible, but it (especially if there is no donuts) can not be beautiful.




Big Blue announced by the two companies try MobileFirst programs, mobile commerce and enterprise sectors to gain a foothold is part of IBM's efforts. IBM DB2 product line and strengthen its platform with WebSphere Extreme Scale data grid ensconced in the world of relational databases because it has been a bumpy ride. Is well suited for enterprise deployments, while such data systems level under time variable workloads and mobile or web applications can come at any time the data will be able to handle the firehose need to be suitable for the mobile database are not.

Business data separate from the rest of the data handling for developers and database administrators will make life easier. You know, boring stuff - NoSQL databases and relational databases to deal with mobile widgets inventory, finance and payroll are two of note.

This of course, is not how it works. Increasingly, mobile applications business income and information from the in-house data needs to be integrated with the rest. Or maybe the opposite is true, and mobile applications in the enterprise legacy systems to obtain data required.

Again, this is impossible, but Connection often as an example should be set. Q mobile app to be used by employees for enterprise mobile app is especially true if it is.

Big Blue is still making waves

Technical side of the partnership, applications developers need to connect the data to build their applications within IBM Worklight Studio will be able to integrate with MongoDB APIs.

Other companies connector for the non-relational database is constructed, and 10gen Indeed, for a variety of data systems has its own connector. IBM's entry into this space, however, are working together to improve access to relational and non-relational system lends more weight to. IBM's anointment of 10gen NoSQL MongoDB also a great shot of street cred in the ground.

This download all enterprise applications can be run on the cloud platform: IBM announced that the IBM's overall strategy will be another tool that SoftLayer, is buying It comes a day after announcing that it is no accident.
