Basho Upgrades Some Services
March 29, 2012
Basho is in the search business. We monitor the company’s Riak Search product. today we notice that the company has rolled out an “all new” Riak CS. The “CS” refers to cloud storage. We are generally suspicious of categorical affirmatives in general. In this particular announcement, Basho asserts “at any scale.” You can read the somewhat art history inspired announcement at this Basho link.
The company asserts:
Riak CS is a multi-tenant, distributed, S3-compatible cloud storage platform that enables enterprises and service providers to launch public or private cloud services. Built on top of Riak, the world’s most advanced distributed database, Riak CS provides horizontal scale, extreme durability and low operational overhead in a distributed object storage system.
This is a buzzword fiesta. We assume that one finds content within the categorical affirmative charged system using the company’s Riak Search system.
We are monitoring developments. Notice we did not insert “all” because that is a logical impossibility for an addled goose. Art history majors engaging in PR puffery are not as restrained perhaps?
