Xeround Builds Out MySQL Cloud Platform Software vendor Xeround bringing components of the open source database to the cloud with new public beta release, melding features of NoSQL and SQL offerings. While the NoSQL database movement has been gaining momentum, MySQL remains a powerful force in the market. But need it be an either/or proposition? Xeround doesn't think so. The firm has released the public beta version of its cloud database, which it bills as a pairing of the benefits of SQL and NoSQL databases. While it pulls aspects from the open source MySQL database, Xeround's offering also leverages proprietary technology in a hybrid model. "On the front end it remains MySQL," explained Xeround CEO Razi Sharir. "On the backend we're using our own core technology to allow for the high-availability and scalability."
