Revolutionizing databases with MarkLogic | #mlw15
by Elizabeth Kays | May 5, 2015
In the same way that the DevOps approach has revolutionized networking and infrastructure, MarkLogic Corp. has worked tirelessly to reinvent the backbone of online business: databases. Where browsers, middleware and databases all used to function separately and often in different languages, full-stack development is quickly becoming the norm, reducing confusion and speeding innovation.
Joe Pasqua, EVP of Products for MarkLogic, joined theCUBE at MarkLogic World 2015: “People are kind of realizing now that all of the translations that they used to go through … can start dissolving away, because they can use the same technologies, the same data formats, at every tier of their architecture.”
Targeting developers
To achieve such a dramatic shift in development workflows, MarkLogic has targeted developers specifically with its latest products. After many conversations with developers at all levels, the company included native java support and other tools to make developers’ lives easier. Still, even with these advances, some customers are slow to adopt this new approach. Security is still a big issue for many clients — a problem that won’t be solved overnight and may require new ways of thinking.
“Some of it is going to be process,” Pasqua said. “Some of the biggest exposures are process exposures. People talk about, ‘Oh, we can’t move to the Coud; it’s not secure.’ I would say, there’s good reason for worrying about that, but at the same time, I would put up Amazon’s security practices against just about anybody. They’re very, very good. They do that for a living, and their practices are great. And what I think some people don’t realize is that it isn’t just the technology piece. You can have fantastic security technology, but if you don’t configure it correctly, you don’t keep it up to date, it’s worthless.”
Enterprise-ready
But unlike other schema-agnostic database companies, MarkLogic’s is committed to making sure all of their products are enterprise-ready, from the basics like security and reliability to power features like semantics and real-time alerting. Enterprise-readiness need to be part of development from the very beginning to be effective, especially when it comes to security.
“If you try and add a security layer on top of an existing product, you are destined to fail,” Pasqua pointed out. “It’s much, much harder to create a solid security solution after the fact than integrating it into the fabric of the product.”
