- Oracle 12c now implemented as a standard database guest with backup and restore capabilities;

 

- PostgreSQL backup and restore, configuration group definitions and clustering, as well as new replication functionality;

 

- Full integration with OpenStack Ceilometer for monitoring and billing, including some 100 notifications to track database backups, replication, resizing, authorized users and more;

- Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7 added to existing distributions;

 

- Certified by Mirantis for Mirantis OpenStack 6.1 distribution.

 

“We continue to add support for more databases and operating systems but equally important we are adding new capabilities to the platform, such as log file management and more support for monitoring,” said Ken Rugg, CEO of Tesora. “These improvements make our implementation of OpenStack Trove the most advanced platform for database as a service.”

About OpenStack Trove
OpenStack Trove database as a service is transforming the way databases are provisioned and managed, to make database capacity that can be consumed on-demand. Trove lets administrators and DevOps manage multiple instances of different database management systems (DBMS), both relational and NoSQL, using a common infrastructure. This makes it much easier and faster to select and operate a database – while retaining all its capabilities – in a secure private or public cloud. The result is that routine tasks like provisioning, and managing regular administrative tasks like clustering, replication, backup and restore are handled in a simple, unified way.
