AllianceOnePartner

Q2WEB intensifies the collaboration with Hewlett-Packard and completes a technology partnership.

As producer of the award-winning, fastest universal database Yaacomo we always look for new, powerful but economical hardware that together with our software gets the optimum in performance and energy out of it. In HP’s ProLiant Moonshot Server we were able to find. This innovative server technology uses extremely energy-saving processors and is currently still quite new on the market. Due to its architecture the Moonshot Server solution enables a massive reduction of energy and floor space requirement compared to common server solutions and is by this the perfect hardware to operate with Yaacomo on servers.

The AllianceOne Partner Program supports among others software producers with the development of their solutions on HP platforms. As a partner Q2WEB benefits from the numerous tools and resources helpung us to promote the sale as well as the consistent further development of our database software. Hewlett-Packard provides e.g. HP infrastructure of hardware, software, and related services. Above that, our developers get technical support and access to technical documents and special developer trainings.

We are looking forward to a constructive and exciting collaboration.

vfinnodays2013

From 8 to 10 October Yaacomo and Hewlett Packard Germany had a common booth at this year’s Vodafone Innovation Days.

With the experts from HP the ideal interaction of HP’s Moonshot Server and the Yaacomo database software was presented. By our showcase „Big Data on small Server“ we demonstrated the power of Yaacomo.

Therefore an application was showed that combines free geographical basic data with statistical data and market information in interactive maps and diagramms. By this sythesis it enables the acquisition of new insights and statements about spatio-temporal coherences.

Usually, the performance of such applications suffers from the enormous quantity of the data that have to be analysed and are often hold in distributed systems. In our showcase however, all data is consolidatedly stored in one Yaacomo database. This allows a very powerful application that is just great fun.
