SQL wants go to 11.

SQL wants go to 11.

I was going to write a post about SQL and how PernixData's FVP is used to accelerate databases but then I realized I am not really a SQL DBA.

So I decided to channel my inner Bala.

Bala Narasimhan is PernixData's VP of Products and he has a extensive background in database technologies. 

After spending some time at HP writing kernel memory management software, Bala moved to Oracle and was responsible for memory SGA and PGA.

One of his proudest achievements was to build the automatic memory management in Oracle 10G.

He then went on and worked at a startup where he rewrote the open source database, Postgres, to be a scale out, columnar relational databases for data warehousing and analytics.

Bala recently recorded a webinar eliminate performance bottlenecks in virtualized Databases.

Bala is also on Twitter can be found here.

As the topic databases is an extensive one, this is the first of several re-posts split up into a series of smaller articles, making it more digestible.

Onward to part 2!
