#liveDB server, research and upcoming webinar on In-Memory Database Systems

Howdy folks,

Justin: Thanks for the research links in your reply a while back. We're working on a server product with support for mirroring so they came in handy.

'Write-ahead logging' was a good search phrase, and I had some success with "In-Memory Database Systems (IMDSs)". Not much recent work and mostly from an operational perspective dealing with issues like reliability and performance. What drives me is software development productivity. We initiated a research project yesterday (bachelor level) aiming to compare two implementations of the same application, one using a traditional rdbms approach and one using #liveDB.

Subject: In-memory databases vs. caching, RAM-disks & SSDs

Hi Robert,

Managing data on disk can add intolerable latency to applications. In-Memory Database Systems (IMDSs) offer a solution based on fast, all-in-memory data storage.

But database caching, RAM-disks and SSDs can also eliminate disk I/O. Do IMDSs really provide anything new? The Webinar "What Makes A Database System 'In-Memory'?" on Thursday, February 16, explains what's unique about IMDSs and how to use this innovation to build better, faster real-time applications. McObject CEO Steve Graves hosts the event.

Register now<http://www.mcobject.com/in-memory-database-webinar-february-16> and attend "What Makes A Database System 'In-Memory'?" on February 16.

Regards,

Chris Mureen
