Continuent uni/cluster Adds Solaris Support

Advanced database replication and high availability now available on Sun Microsystems' Solaris Operating System.

MySQL Conference and Expo, Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) April 15, 2008 -- Continuent, Inc., a leading provider of commercial open-source middleware solutions for database high availability, today announced support for Sun Microsystems' Solaris™ operating system (OS). Continuent™ uni/cluster 2008 software provides the highest levels of availability and scalability for open source databases such as MySQL® and PostgreSQL.

Continuent's robust uni/cluster 2008 can benefit Solaris customers who find themselves challenged with highly demanding workloads, making database high availability and scalability fast and easy for mission-critical applications.

"Adoption of the open source Solaris OS continues to accelerate, among both the open source and commercial communities -- fueled by bundled virtualization for servers and storage, and vast support by thousands of ISVs. Solaris is clearly the OS that customers are demanding," said Juan Carlos Soto, vice president, global market development, Sun Microsystems, Inc.
