Significant Performance Improvements in Xeround's Latest Release

We’re excited to announce our latest product upgrade out today, which includes some key enhancements to Xeround’s Cloud Database service.

First and foremost, we’ve achieved SIGNIFICANT performance improvements:

Check out the updated benchmark comparing our service to Amazon’s RDS (single, and Multi-A-Z) and to Rackspace’s MySQL cloud database.

Tests were conducted on the actual cloud live environment to make sure there was no environment-specific bias, using standard DBT-2 database benchmark application.

See how this latest release compares to our previous one, and to RDS’ performance:

1. Support forFull Text Search via Full Text Index
2. MySQL version upgraded to 5.5.20
3. Xeround BASIC edition now supports restore-from-backup capability
4. Caching of static tables and Btree indexes
