Klustron's First Commercial Version Release
Klustron's First Commercial Version Release
Klustron, a distributed database system, has released its first commercial version, Klustron 1.0, after more than two years of development and testing by the Klustron team. Klustron 1.0 now has all the planned features and has achieved the expected level of stability, reliability, and performance required for commercial use, making it the first production system that can be used by enterprise users.
Klustron 1.0 offers all the basic functions of a distributed database system, including automatic data sharding, horizontal elastic scaling, distributed transaction processing, distributed query processing, strong consistency, high availability, cluster data backup and consistency recovery, as well as graphical cluster management and monitoring alerts.
Klustron uniquely supports both MySQL and PostgreSQL connection protocols, which is a capability that is not currently offered by any other competing products.
Klustron natively supports PostgreSQL's SQL syntax and PL/SQL, as well as MySQL's private DML syntax, allowing applications using either database to connect directly to Klustron without modification.
The Enterprise version of Klustron 1.0 is now available, with the Community version to follow in the next few days. For more information on Klustron's product and technical documentation, product downloads, and customer case studies, please visit: www.Klustron.com
Klustron Value Proposition for Customers
Klustron eliminates the need for application developers and architects to worry about managing and utilizing massive amounts of data and heavy client loads that come with fast-growing data volumes. Instead, they can leave these tasks entirely to Klustron and focus on designing and implementing their applications, just as they would with a MySQL or PostgreSQL deployment.
As the storage and data access loads in the system increase, DBAs can simply add more computer servers to the Klustron cluster, and Klustron will automatically scale up to utilize the additional computing resources, increasing the cluster's data storage and access loads processing capacity.
This greatly reduces the difficulty of application system development, allowing architects and application developers to concentrate on application design and implementation, while leaving the storage, management, and utilization of massive data to Klustron.
The division of labor in modern society is the underlying logic that drives development, efficiency, and civilization. Letting professionals do their job is key to continually improving efficiency, reliability, product and service quality, and the design and development of software systems. We believe that Klustron can truly help users improve quality, increase efficiency, reduce labor and hardware costs, and continue to create value!
At this exciting moment, I would also like to discuss my humble understanding of the role, value, and future development of IT systems in social production and life. Perhaps it can bring some inspiration to readers and spark some thought-provoking ideas, playing a role in stimulating further discussion.
The Software-Defined World
Today's world is an era where information technology deeply penetrates into every aspect of human life and various industries.
For individuals, the impact is direct and immediate. Most Chinese people cannot function without their smartphones. The mobile apps installed on their phones represent only the tip of the iceberg for various businesses' software systems. The huge underwater part of these systems enables businesses to provide better and better services for users.
For enterprises, software encapsulates, expresses, and applies their industry knowledge and operating rules. Increasingly, software drives their operations and helps them achieve digitization, informatization, and intelligence (a.k.a the "Three Transformations"), enabling enterprises to continuously improve efficiency and reduce costs. Not only is the customer-facing part of the enterprise almost entirely digitized, but even internal management and operations are also largely driven by software and will become more standardized in the future. For any modern enterprise in any industry, it has become a consensus that the better an enterprise achieves the Three Transformations, the better its development status and potential. Different enterprises' abilities, quality, and degree of implementation of the Three Transformations result in different effects.
For the government, software enables the implementation and application of their management rules and administrative processes, and is a crucial measure to improve their administrative efficiency and capability. More and more administrative services can now be completed using mobile phones, without the need to go to government service centers. This not only benefits everyone but also improves the government's administrative efficiency and satisfaction level, demonstrating its enormous value.
By fully applying software to organizational management and business operations, enterprises and governments can achieve flatter management, more efficient and accurate organizational operations, and retain a large amount of operating data for analyzing business decisions or policy effects, gaining timely, accurate, and comprehensive feedback to help decision-makers and executors adjust and respond quickly, thus enabling enterprises to gain a competitive edge and governments to formulate and implement better policies.
In the future, human operations in various industries will be more extensively driven and assisted by software. Software will be responsible for guiding, recording, displaying, storing, analyzing, and promoting various human activities to achieve predetermined goals. Humans will be responsible for operating and using this software to complete their job responsibilities or meet their various needs.
The relationship between humans and computer systems is becoming like this: practitioners in each industry encapsulate and implement their company's production, manufacturing, procurement, research and development, design, management, and service processes into computer software, and then the company's employees in various functional departments provide products and services to users and customers by using internal software systems. They then continue to operate, maintain, and adjust these software systems, analyze data on operations, business, and after-sales service, adjust business, service, and development strategies and resource allocation. This continuous iterative process is also the process by which enterprises continuously iterate and improve their information systems and components.
Each individual obtains the services they need through the client-side software for various industries. This means that the country and society run on top of computer systems, and the entire social operation becomes more efficient, and resource utilization efficiency will also be more efficient, bringing greater benefits to everyone.
Klustron supports domestic IT infrastructure
In recent years, the country has provided a lot of resources and support to various segments of the IT infrastructure industry, allowing domestic chips, operating systems, and other components to gain tremendous opportunities for development.
Klustron currently supports domestic operating systems such as Kylin and UOS (Tongxin) as well as domestic chips such as Kunpeng, Loongson, and Feiteng. We will continue to collaborate with more domestic infrastructure companies to build a complete and powerful IT infrastructure matrix for China, which will help the country's economic development.
We firmly believe that in this magnificent trend of information technology development, our Klustron team will continue to create better products and services, and continuously create value for our customers!
