Volume 173, Issue 3
At InsideView, whose sales intelligence applications are used by more than 200,000 sales and marketing professionals and 2,000 market-leading companies, MySQL Enterprise Edition on Oracle Solaris is the platform of choice, enabling the company to leverage a high-performance, cost-effective and flexible solution to support its growing customer base and the development of its award-winning technologies. MySQL stores hundreds of gigabytes of InsideView's contact details and connections collected from the most relevant social media, user-contributed and traditional/proprietary editorial sources. MySQL supports all of the companys core business functions and helps InsideView deliver business and social insights to its customers. Using a master-slave replication topology, MySQL replication enables InsideView to achieve high availability and horizontal scale-out with dedicated backup and read slaves, while the partitioning capabilities allow InsideViews developers, DBAs and system administrators to optimize database performance and simplify management. InsideView has also used the built-in file system compression in Oracle Solaris ZFS to increase the I/O performance of MySQL.
