McObject's eXtremeDB® v8.0 adds a suite of new features for the Internet of ThingsNEW YORK, SEATTLE and LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, Nov. 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McObject®, developer of eXtremeDB®, the ultra-efficient database management system for intelligent connected devices on the Internet of Things (IoT), announced a major new feature with the addition of stored procedures and a raft of other enhancements to eXtremeDB version 8.0, scheduled for release in January. Stored procedures are implemented in eXtremeDB 8.0 with the Lua language. Lua is increasingly popular due to its compact nature and efficiency, as well as ease-of-learning. Importantly, it combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Steve Graves, CEO and co-founder of McObject, commented “The use of Lua significantly augments eXtremeDB’s analytical capabilities on eXtremeSQL servers. This builds on the already well-understood advantages of stored procedures: centralizing logic and minimizing time-consuming data transfers between client and server. Our primary commitment to clients is ensuring that eXtremeDB supports their current and future needs. We will continue to provide the tools our customers need to enable optimization of their technology strategy.” Key additions and enhancements in v.8 include:
McObject’s solution was to create container maps on the server database, enable efficient data compression at the edge, and encrypt all data at rest and in flight. This approach means that communication between servers and edge devices is as efficient and secure as possible; eXtremeDB manages replication even when contact is sporadic. “This is an exceptionally exciting time to be involved in IoT related projects. eXtremeDB is helping clients around the world who need to quickly translate raw data into genuine insights,” Graves observes. “We are very proud of our system being deployed with more than 28 million devices and applications; v.8.0 adds enhancements and new features which will keep this number growing.” eXtremeDB has been deployed across numerous markets, including in networking gear (Motorola, F5 Networks, Genband), industrial (Schneider Electric, Schlumberger), aerospace and defence (BAE, Boeing, Northrop Grumman), satellite ground systems as well as consumer electronics (GoPro, DirecTV, JVC).
