MarkLogic 9 is our most ambitious release ever. It builds on our leading enterprise NoSQL platform and makes it more powerful, more secure and more manageable.
Our partners were invited to join the Early Access program before the product was released to the public, and we want to thank them for all the hard work they put into testing and providing us valuable feedback that was incorporated into the final product.
Early Access partners were able to dig into our improved security features, easier data integration and enhanced manageability across all environments.
Early Access Partners Recognized
Over a dozen partners participated in the program and two stood out for their efforts: Avalon Consulting, LLC and Tahzoo. They were recently recognized at MarkLogic World.
Avalon Consulting, LLC, focused on two of MarkLogic 9’s new features, enhanced security, and Optic API. Team members Harry Bakken and Karl Erisman, among others, really probed the new functionality and provided thorough feedback for the final product.
Tahzoo performed a comprehensive dismantling of the product down to the core and built it back from the ground up to ensure that it would meet all of their customers’ requirements. In the end, the platform stood up to their rigorous testing and was improved based on their assessment.
CEO Tom Reidy and Principal Consultant Harry Bakken, of Avalon Consulting, LLC, receive their award at MarkLogic World Chicago.
David Ennis, MarkLogic Architect at Tahzoo, accepts their award at MarkLogic World London.
