Continuent unveils innovative database proxy

SAN JOSE, USA: Provider of commercial open source middleware solutions for database high-availability and scalability, Continuent, Inc. has announced a new release of its uni/cluster Connector.

Continuent uni/cluster is a suite of middleware software that delivers high-availability and scalability clustering for virtually any mission critical database application. Continuent uni/cluster Connector is a key part of the Continuent vision of transparent database clustering using databases and commodity hardware.

The Connector allows applications that use MySQL or PostgreSQL native database APIs to connect directly to Continuent uni/cluster without changing libraries or making code alterations.

"We are excited to announce prepared statement support for the uni/cluster Connector. It is an innovative SQL proxy that allows MySQL and PostgreSQL native clients to connect transparently to Continuent uni/cluster database clustering without changes to application code or library changes," says Eero Teerikorpi, CEO at Continuent.

With complete SQL support, uni/cluster Connector now covers the full gamut of API calls used by client applications.

Installation and configuration of the Connector can be completed within a few minutes and do not require any application changes.
