Updates December 2022

Our first company year is coming to an end. Besides the implementation of numerous customer projects, we were also able to extend our benchmarking platform and website.

All changes as well as the current list of supported and integrated database management systems and Database-as-a-Service products are summarized here.

Credits-based Pricing Model

The benchmarking platform for experts has been extended to include a transparent, credits-based pricing model. This means that the costs per performance measurement are calculated and displayed during the configuration process.

Depending on the (cloud) resource size, number of database nodes and workload intensity, a performance measurement costs a different number of credits.

Credits can be ordered by logged-in users. These are then credited to the account and can be used for all measurements.

The following database technologies can currently be measured with our benchmarking technology. Not all databases are available in the configurator for independent performance measurement, but are only enabled for selected customer groups.
