In addition, the Company has released the general availability of an Open-Source stand-alone and cluster download, the general availability of its V2.0 and the launch of its developer community site. Sandbox Open Source and Community Site "I am very excited about Splice Machine opening its software and developing a community," said Monte Zweben, co-founder and CEO, Splice Machine. "We are committed to making it as easy as possible for developers to get Splice Machine and test it at scale. Our Community edition is a fully functional RDBMS that enables teams to completely evaluate Splice Machine, while our Enterprise edition contains additional DevOps features needed to securely operate Splice Machine, 24x7." To support the growing Splice Machine community, the Company has launched a community website that includes: tutorials, videos, a developer forum, a GitHub repository, a StackOverflow tag and a Slack channel. These resources are rich with code to help developers, data scientists and DevOps learn to use Splice Machine, and will continue to grow with contributions from the entire community. V2.0 General Availability Splice Machine 2.0 features include:
Ideal for powering real-time operational and analytical applications, Splice Machine simplifies the Lambda architecture, so businesses no longer have to manage the complexity of integrating multiple compute engines to ingest, serve, or analyze data. With Splice Machine's "Lambda in a Box" architecture, developers and data scientists can store their data all in one place and just write SQL. "We are excited about v2.0 of Splice Machine," said Tom Beale, Chief Technology Officer, Corax. "The new version has a closer relationship between Spark and relational data storage. This enables us to continue to utilize big data computation and storage technology at the same time, interfacing directly with our cyber risk quantification SaaS platform." The new architecture includes the ability to easily access external data and libraries. The Splice Machine RDBMS can execute federated queries on data in external databases and files using Virtual Table Interfaces (VTIs). It can also execute all pre-built Spark libraries (over 130 and growing) for machine learning, stream analysis, data integration and graph modeling. Added Zweben, "Digital marketers, financial institutions, life science and cybersecurity companies all need to process mixed OLTP and OLAP workloads and prefer technologies with a vibrant community. The open source community provides a lifespan beyond any single company's tenure, and a rich source of skill sets to tap that can expand, customize, and operate the technology."
