WSO2 Storage Server (WSO2 SS) 1.0.3 Released!

WSO2 Storage Server (WSO2 SS) team is pleased to announce the release of its version 1.0.3.

WSO2 SS conveniently delivers multi-tenant structured and unstructured data storage provisioning capabilities to development projects. Development teams can rapidly provision and access secure and scalable relational, NoSQL Columnar, and Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) repositories using a consistent management process. The WSO2 Storage Server management console allows teams to create databases, add users, and provision access based on the web application’s database policies. It is distributed under the Apache Software License v2.0

WSO2 SS is developed on top of the revolutionary WSO2 Carbon platform (Middleware a' la carte), an OSGi based framework that provides seamless modularity to your SOA via componentization. This release also contains many new features and a range of optional components (add-ons) that can be installed to customize the behavior of the SS. Further, any existing features of the SS which are not required to your environment can be easily removed using the underlying provisioning framework of Carbon. In brief, WSO2 SS can be fully customized and tailored to meet your exact Storage and SOA needs.

You can download this distribution from here and give it a try.
