Overview

Cloud2db is a universal database for cloud computing. Cloud2db allows for an immediate adaption of cloud database technologies into your enterprise technology stack. This is truly a plug-and-play into the cloud database technologies.

What is it?

Cloud2db brings relational database functionality to cloud computing platforms by bridging the gap between cloud database technologies and relational database technologies. Cloud2db works seamlessly with most of the popular cloud database technologies like Google Bigtable, Amazon SimpleDB & Hadoop HBase and it also supports the relational database standards ANSI SQL-92/ANSI SQL-99 and JDBC 3.0, removing the technology lock-in which people fear the most about when adapting to emerging technologies.

What sets us apart?

While there are many cloud databases emerging geared towards better performance and scalability, these lack the built-in support for standards, structure and interoperability that is required to effectively and quickly implement enterprise class applications. This is where Cloud2db excels. Cloud2db provides a standards-based abstraction layer over these cloud technologies to provide you with performance and scalability of cloud database platforms along with structure, standards and interoperability of relational database platforms.
