As part of this initiative, ScaleArc’s customers can lower spend between 15 to 20 percent by purchasing an annual subscription of ScaleArc’s database traffic management software when compared to hourly prices over the same period.

The ScaleArc software inserts transparently between the applications and databases to create an agile data tier that instantly solves database scalability challenges. The software helps customers migrate into the cloud by ensuring high application availability and performance with no changes to the app. ScaleArc also makes it easy for customers to pursue hybrid deployments.
