With six new database-as-a-service (DBaaS) solutions, OVHcloud now has one of the most comprehensive database-as-a-service (DBaaS) portfolios on the market. A partnership with Aiven, a European software company that combines the best of open-source technologies and cloud infrastructure, enabled this acceleration in solutions.

Its six new DBaaS solutions (MySQL, PostgreSQL*, Apache Kafka, Apache Kafka Mirror Maker, RedisTM** and OpenSearch) along with five other solutions (Apache Cassandra, M3, M3 Aggregator, Grafana*** and Apache Kafka Connect****) are all available in the first quarter of 2022. Through this, OVHcloud is offering its customers the most comprehensive choice of managed databases.

Through its extensive Public Cloud Database portfolio, OVHcloud supports the adoption of Managed Platform-as-a-Service for companies. This facilitates the acceleration of their transformation as a result of application modernisation, the implementation of a native cloud strategy, or the extrapolation of data through a complete data pipeline, based on artificial intelligence.

OVHcloud offers sustainable open-source databases, allowing customers to benefit from the latest updates and innovations of user communities. The open-source community supports these solutions and standards and guarantee portability and reversibility, avoiding any vendor lock-in.

DBaaS solutions benefit from the advantages fundamental to the OVHcloud range: an accessible solution, an unparalleled price/performance ratio, predictable pricing and data location choices so organisations are not subject to extraterritorial laws.

OVHcloud-Aiven partnership drives innovation
Thierry Souche, Chief Technical Officer at OVHcloud said: “It’s essential for us to respond to our customers’ evolving needs, and to adapt to an ever-changing market. We have therefore decided to support them by offering a managed, trusted offer for a wide range of database engines. To achieve this, OVHcloud relied on the technologies from the European software player, Aiven, with which we share the same values – open-source innovation, interoperable standards, accessibility and simplicity.”

“Through our partnership with OVHcloud, we are providing open-source technologies that enable organisations to accelerate implementation of digital cloud infrastructure and utilise data to drive business and innovation. We are happy to be part of this changing moment in the history of OVHcloud,” said Heikki Nousiainen, Chief Technology Officer at Aiven.
