EnterpriseDB Expands its Postgres Plus Cloud Database to Support Virtual Private Clouds Following 200% Revenue Growth in 2013

PUNE, India, January 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    - Enterprises Gain Greater Security and Control With Virtual Private Clouds Supported
by EDB's Cloud Database Architecture

    - EnterpriseDB Expands the Reach of its Postgres Plus Cloud Database With New
Availability in Australia

    EnterpriseDB [http://www.enterprisedb.com ] (EDB), the leading worldwide provider of
enterprise-class Postgres products and Oracle database compatibility solutions, today
announced it has expanded its Postgres Plus Cloud Database
[http://www.enterprisedb.com/cloud-database/faqs ] to support Amazon Web Services' virtual
private cloud (VPC) feature. EDB also announced the launch of its Postgres Plus Cloud
Database on Amazon Web Services' Asia Pacific (Sydney) region in Australia.

    The expanded capability of the Postgres Plus Cloud Database and launch into a major
new market follows a year of spectacular growth in the solution's customer base and a 200
percent increase in revenue during 2013.

    Postgres Plus Cloud Database has several critical distinctions from cloud-based
databases. Postgres Plus Cloud Database is based on an architecture purpose-built for the
cloud so that it scales automatically in response to fluctuations in demand for processing
power, server capacity or network capacity. An easy-to-use management console simplifies
database deployment and monitoring, and users can control automatic performance scaling by
setting triggering thresholds. Postgres Plus Cloud deployments include support from a team
that focuses exclusively on Postgres

.

    Postgres Plus Cloud Database supports both community PostgreSQL and EDB's flagship
Postgres Plus Advanced Server, which extends PostgreSQL with enterprise-class security,
performance and manageability enhancements.

    "Our cloud database is supporting more complex and larger enterprise workloads and
that means greater demand for security and control," said Ed Boyajian, CEO and President
of EnterpriseDB. "As our users move from development to production deployments, we're
expanding our feature set to ensure Postgres Plus Cloud Database supports evolving
business needs in the cloud. And our tremendous growth in demand for our cloud database
shown by the 200 percent increase in revenue confirms we're on the right track."

    Expanding Postgres Plus Cloud Database to support VPCs gives end users even greater
flexibility and control over their database. With virtual private clouds, end users can
manage inbound and outbound traffic at the instance and at the subnet level. This
complements additional control that Postgres Plus Cloud Database enables by deploying each
database as a completely private instance. With root access providing full control of the
database, users can monitor more operational information, tune more characteristics of the
database for higher performance, and better customize their database deployment for
specific needs than other Postgres databases in the cloud.

    The support for Amazon's virtual private cloud capability also enables Postgres Plus
Cloud Database users to operate hybrid clouds, seamlessly linking on-premise Postgres
deployments with cloud instances through a secure connection.

    "Postgres Plus Cloud Database gave us the performance and reliability we needed to
launch our business in a very cost effective way so we could continue to invest in
growth," said John Holland, CEO of WholeWorldBand, an audio visual music collaboration and
sharing platform that launched on Postgres Plus Cloud Database. "We need secure
communications between our network and our database in the cloud and by using the new
virtual private cloud compatibility from EnterpriseDB, we're able to contain our
environment. It's reduced the amount of work each of the machines has to do and greatly
simplified the configuration."
