Summary

I'm thrilled that Membase has been recognized as a company to watch by IDC, a reputable organization known for its extensive research and rigorous award selection process. This award brings credibility to our innovative work in the NoSQL space, particularly since we're not one of the first products in the market. The IDC recognition acknowledges the strategic importance of NoSQL databases for enterprise customers and the significant opportunity it represents for companies like us. We've seen a marked increase in interest and uptake of our software, with customers seeking alternatives to complement their relational database solutions. Many enterprise customers are now recognizing the need for non-relational solutions on the back end, as evidenced by the growing number of inquiries and engagements we're seeing from financial services, retailers, and media companies. Overall, this award is a testament to Membase's innovative work in addressing the needs of interactive web applications.
