Bizgres MPP - Public Beta 2

This is the second opening of the Bizgres MPP Beta, roughly 1.5 months
after the first.  We'll be accepting a limited number of additional
customers,
so if you are interested in participating, please register and download
now.

If you downloaded the first Beta, you should update your software with
this
newer version as it fixes known issues and provides some new
capabilities.
Please refer to your original confirmation e-mail for your download
link.

-------------- Beta welcome message below ----------------------------
After 2 years of development, Greenplum is happy to announce the
availability of Bizgres MPP Beta for download!

If you are currently using a database larger than 100GB for data mining
/
decision support or business intelligence and are having performance
challenges, Bizgres MPP can help you get your work done faster with less
effort.  MPP is not a solution for speeding OLTP throughput, but excels
at
processing queries that use large amounts of data.

Bizgres MPP provides parallel database features that have previously
been
reserved for multi-million dollar mainframes, now available as enhanced
PostgreSQL software.  Bizgres MPP is the fastest parallel DBMS for large
databases! Expect these benefits:
- All CPUs on a single host work on each query
- Add hosts to grow data and speed queries
- Use multiple hosts to increase reliability

Pricing is based on the number of CPUs used for production use.  Use of
Bizgres MPP for development of applications not in production use is
permitted under our commercial license terms.  Participants in this Beta
will qualify for a discounted license fee in exchange for feedback on
the
product.

We are accepting a limited number of customers in this open Beta, so
please
register and download now:
