Solid: High-Performance Storage for MySQL

Yesterday, Solid Information Technology Corp. released solidDB for MySQL, a combo of MySQL on the front end, and Solid's solidDB Storage Engine on the back. On the TM1 benchmark, an opensource benchmark simulating transaction loads on a mobile phone carrier location database, Solid evidently posts more than twice the transactions per second than competitor InnoDB.than twice the transactions per second in the TM1 Benchmark for a database with 1 million rows.

The product will be licensed under the same dual-license model as MySQL -- users can choose a GNU General Public License or a proprietary license. It's available on Linux and Microsoft Windows today, with other MySQL-supported systems planned. For more info click here.
