September 21, 2004 — Bellevue, WA — It started as a slow drip, and has developed into a full stream: magazines and websites worldwide are talking about Club ITTIA (the ITTIA embedded database community) membership and database offerings such as db.*, the high-performance small-footprint open source database.
The power, flexibility, speed and cost-effectiveness of ITTIA database solutions are undeniable. The open-source development model brings stability and opens doors to new opportunities; while the professional technical support and consulting options provides expert insurance and reduces time-to-market. The obvious benefits of Club ITTIA and ITTIA database offerings have not escaped the attention of the press.
Databasejournal.com writes: “db.*, with a small footprint, combines the network and relational data model to create a solution sufficient to operate real-time applications and critical performance environments.”
Other publications have concentrated on the embedded database community at Club ITTIA. “Open source embedded database regains commercial, community support,” is the headline at Linuxdevices.com. The open-source model has interested several other online magazines, including Newsforge, O’Reilly’s OSDir and LWN.net. The coverage is not limited to online publications. The print magazine, SD Times, also covered ITTIA in its most recent issue in the article "ITTIA Relights 'db star' Database".
“We are extending our arms and seeking embedded developers, consultants, and partners to join our effort to establish a first class community where quality and cost-effectiveness are prioritized,” said Sasan Montaseri, President of ITTIA. “The more top-notch developers who join Club ITTIA, the more value it can provide to other members. Recent market response confirms that we are on the right track.”
