Five years old Speedment have developed a method that allows existing databases 100,000 times faster. The trick is to a copy of the database is added to the internal memory in a tree structure.
– It makes it easy for the programmer to write super-fast applications says company president Carina Dreifeldt.
technology was developed to solve a pressing problem in the founders’ previous company, music service Chilirec. The service grew rapidly and thus the need for new servers. To avoid having to buy new hardware company developed a software that relieves databases through a smart way to mirror data in internal memory.
At first, sold the software as a service to a dozen Swedish companies. But after having presented the idea in the United States and met with huge interest released the software as open source Java developers worldwide.
– While We will present a corporate version that we charge for, says Carina Dreifeldt who divides his time between Gothenburg and the newly opened office in Palo Alto, United States.
