ABOUT ALTIBASE

The rich history of Altibase as a pioneer in in-memory databases and in-memory computing dates back to 1999 when the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), a renowned government research organization in South Korea, initiated research on the impact of RAM on traditional relational databases.

Driven by the vision of harnessing the immense power of in-memory technology, Altibase was founded as a spin-off from ETRI in 1999. With a strong foundation in research and development, Altibase has since been at the forefront of innovation, pushing the boundaries of database technology and revolutionizing the way organizations manage and process their data:

  • Altibase takes pride in its extensive installation base, which stands as the largest in the world, encompassing over 700 global enterprise clients including 19 Fortune Global 500 companies. With thousands of mission-critical deployments across various industries, Altibase has proven its reliability and scalability in demanding environments.

  • Altibase distinguishes itself as the sole in-memory database provider worldwide that offers unparalleled ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) compliance. This exceptional level of compliance ensures the utmost data integrity, reliability, and consistency in mission-critical applications.

  • In 2005, Altibase made history by becoming the pioneering database vendor to develop and commercialize the world's first hybrid DBMS. This groundbreaking innovation allowed customers to harness the benefits of both RAM (Random Access Memory) and disk storage mediums.

  • In 2015, Altibase introduced its cutting-edge scale-out technology known as sharding. This innovative solution revolutionized the way organizations handle massive data volumes and achieve horizontal scalability.
