Recently, the major media continued to report on the acquisition of South Korea's well-known memory database manufacturer SUNJE SOFT by Kelan Software (stock code: 300663). The media evaluation of Kelan software this move will occupy the commanding height in the field of domestic high-end transaction database, break the monopoly of foreign traditional database products, and occupy the domestic new generation database market with great potential.

In view of this explosive news, which has been paid close attention to recently, it is curious why it is generally recognized in the industry that South Korea's in-memory database is the international leader. Next, let's reveal the reasons behind it.

In recent years, the typical representative of in-memory database is the famous HANA. HANA database was fully promoted by SAP and used in all its ERP products, which once caused a lot of waves in the IT circle. Since 2011, the performance of SAP's HANA in-memory database has grown strongly, with year-on-year growth reaching three digits. Where does such an awesome HANA come from? It happens to be Korea!

HANA is a product developed by TIM, a company founded by professors and students of the Department of computer Engineering at Seoul University. The company was acquired by SAP in 2005 and established the HANA in-memory Database Institute at Seoul University. After six years of redevelopment, the company released its first commercial version in June 2011.

The technology research and development of ALTIBASE, which is an in-memory database earlier than HANA, began in 1991, the company was founded in 1999 by Jin Qigan, and the first commercial version was published in 2000. Later, Mr. Jin Qiman led the core R & D team to form SUNJE SOFT, began to develop the distributed memory database product Goldilocks, and released the first commercial version in 2015. This is the target of this acquisition of Kelan Software!

At present, the widely used column, centralized and distributed memory databases all come from South Korea, which is the birthplace of memory databases all over the world, with a long history of research and development and leading technology in the world. Goldilocks is currently the only in-memory distributed database in Korea, which is being used in many large-scale applications. Its ultra-high performance and stability have been recognized and certified by the TPC-C committee.

After understanding the stories behind these, it is easy to understand why Colin Software bought Korean in-memory database products. By holding SUNJE SOFT, Kelan Software will master the technology of developing the latest distributed memory database to better meet the high concurrency needs of big data in the Internet era. Judging from the business growth effect brought by SAP's acquisition of HANA, Colan software will provide a great imagination for its rapid growth through its application in key bank projects, especially the use of distributed memory database products in high-end ultra-high-performance real-time transactions.
