5M€ to develop European databases on the cloud
The European project CloudDBAppliance, where the goal is to create a platform to provide databases as a service at European level, started in December, in Grenoble, France.
This initiative is promoted by HASLab, INESC TEC’s High Assurance Software Laboratory, and has secured 5M€ from the European Commission.
The goal with CloudDBAppliance - European Cloud In-Memory Database Appliance with Predictable Performance for Critical Applications – is to build a database platform in Europe based entirely on cloud technology. The project will promote the concept of Database as a Service.
Moreover, the project will make it possible to predict performance, robustness and reliability standards, as found in facilities with mainframes.
The project’s kick-off meeting
took place between 12 and 14 December in Grenoble, France. The project
consortium features 11 academic and industrial partners: Bull Atos
technologies, LeanXcale, ActiveViam, BTO, H3G, IKEA, INESC TEC, Technical
University of Madrid, INRIA, Cloudbiz e SingularLogic.
