ALTIBASE HDB is a relational database management system manufactured by Altibase Corporation.
Features
ALTIBASE HDB is a so-called "hybrid DBMS", meaning that it simultaneously supports access to both memory-resident and disk-resident tables via a single interface.[1] It is compatible with Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, DEC, Linux, and Windows. It supports the complete SQL-92 standard, features MVCC (Multi-Version Concurrency Control), implements Fuzzy and Ping-Pong Checkpointing for periodically backing up memory-resident data, and ships with Replication and Database Link functionality.[1]
History
Altibase acquired an in-memory database engine from the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute in February 2000, and commercialized the database in October of the same year.[2]
Altibase changed the name of the in-memory database product from "Spiner" to "Altibase" in 2001.[3]
Altibase integrated the in-memory database with a disk-resident database to create a hybrid DBMS in 2005.[4] Altibase claims that this is the world's first hybrid DBMS.
Altibase renamed the hybrid DBMS "ALTIBASE HDB" in 2011.[4] Altibase released version 6.1.1 in April 2012.
