The Cloud Application Database service brings the advantages of cloud computing to Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server environments without long-term licensing or server provisioning.
With a few clicks, the Cloud Application Database service supplies everything necessary for a complete, secure operational database or disaster recovery solution. Businesses can scale performance levels up or down based on need, without interrupting operations, while offering performance guarantees and eliminating complicated software-licensing expenses.
“Companies value our Cloud Application Database service because it offers them instantly scalable, pay-per-use solutions without software lock-ins or costly hardware provisioning,” said Mark Smith, Asia managing director at Savvis. “Businesses can scale the database service up or down for as short or long a term as needed, giving them the agility they need and expect from a cloud-driven database solution.”
Users can select from Oracle Enterprise 11G RAC or Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 for the underlying technology. The service is available to Asia clients through one of Savvis’ data centres in Singapore.
The Cloud Application Database service, now available in Asia, Europe and North America, complements the Savvis cloud solutions portfolio and Savvis’ commitment to global expansion. The Asia launch of the database service follows the recent announcement about Savvis’ global data centre expansions.
