So by now I’m sure those of you following us know about our relentless passion for eliminating costly joins between tables. The point of the technology we’re developing at Akiban is to make SQL so powerful it merges with documents and makes any complex query execution – well – simple.
Table-grouping has delivered blistering performance and super scalability for current design partners, some of them who have been running Akiban Server in their production environments for a year now. Without the need for complex changes in your architecture or application, Akiban runs simply as a slave of your MySQL master, through non-disruptive and risk free replication.
