Cloud computing and big data are two of the hottest topics in the
industry today, which makes cloud databases a particularly hot
prospect for 2012. What is a cloud database, however? Matt Aslett,
senior analyst enterprise software, 451 Research, examines the
difference between databases running in the public cloud, and
databases that will be used to power private and hybrid clouds. He
will provide an overview of the functional requirements that separate
database running in the cloud from true cloud databases. Following
Matt's talk, Karen Tegan Padir, Vice President of Products and
Marketing, EnterpriseDB, will give an overview and demonstration of
our newest product, Postgres Plus ® Cloud Server.

In this webcast, you'll get an overview of the current state of cloud
database computing, and more specifically differences between cloud
databases and databases in the cloud. We'll also cover a) Current
cloud database offerings - products and services, and b) Cloud
database requirements - public versus private/hybrid

This will be followed by an overview and demonstration of Postgres
Plus Cloud Server, which provides DBaaS for PostgreSQL databases,
which are full-featured enterprise class databases. Cloud Server gives
data center users a tool that is simple to setup and manage, and that
dramatically reduces the time and complexity to scale out critical
databases.
