Solutions Overview

Continuent is the leading provider of open source database management and data replication solutions built by the experienced team in the industry drawn from Sybase, Oracle and Ingres. Team also includes members with operational experience running complex SaaS systems.

Twenty years of experience drove us to believe that the Database Management System (DBMS) industry has been driven by:

• High Cost - Commercial database vendors require a high up-front investment
• Complexity - Long rollout cycles and complexity resulting in software not being implemented correctly and requires a lot professional services
• Lack of Customer Control - Proprietary control preventing choice and ability to switch to other vendors

How Continuent is different:

In the current economic climate organizations need to do more with less. Continuent's passion is to offer a solution that focuses on:

• Low Cost - A low cost, open source, subscription model with minimal upfront investment that can be driven out of operating expense (op ex) as opposed to capital expense (cap ex)
• Simplicity - Rapid deployment to deliver immediate business value and easy automation of the management operations using pre-built components and lightweight scripting
• Choice - Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by reusing existing hardware, software and skills. No lock-in to one database vendor or one stack, so when a vendor tries to dramatically increase maintenance fees you have a choice to go elsewhere.
