London, UK, March 17, 2016 (Newswire.com) - OrientDB, the pioneer behind the world’s first Open Source, NoSQL distributed graph-document database, today announced its certification under the CenturyLink Cloud Marketplace Provider Program. Through this partnership, CenturyLink Cloud users are now able to deploy and manage OrientDB’s community or enterprise edition databases via CenturyLink’s Blueprints library.
OrientDB is a second-generation distributed graph database with the flexibility of documents and an open source Apache 2 license. By treating every vertex and edge as a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) document, OrientDB enables the creation of multi-directional property graphs, allowing bulks of data to be traversed with ease. This new multi-model approach, with a polyglot engine, eliminates the need for multiple systems, ensures data consistency and optimizes the formation of complex relationships. Even for a document-based database, the relationships are managed, as in graph databases, with direct connections amongst records. Its versatility and rapid integration makes OrientDB a perfect candidate for use cases ranging from recommendation engines and fraud detection to real-time analytics and content management. Fortune 500 companies, government entities and startups all use the technology to build large-scale innovative applications.
