MarkLogic / Enterprise NoSQL Database Platform Better answers from today’s data MarkLogic is built to find answers in documents, relationships, and metadata Adaptive to every environment MarkLogic runs well everywhere, while preserving the option to change hardware, data, and scale later Simpler data integration MarkLogic accelerates and simplifies data sharing across silos, cutting down on ETL and making agile development possible Hardened, proven platform MarkLogic has a proven track record of performance under all enterprise conditions Uncompromised data resiliency MarkLogic will keep your data safe and whole—no matter what happens in your application or at your data center POWERFULAGILETRUSTED The intelligent data layer An intelligent data layer powers intelligent applications—and makes them faster and more flexible than any alternative

Store and manage data natively as XML documents, a hierarchical self- describing data type that is ideal for a wide variety of applications. Geospatial Support Full-text Search Flexible Indexes Native JSON Store Native XML Store Real-time Alerting Native RDF Triple Store Bitemporal Tiered Storage Fully Transactional Server-side JavaScript Semantic Inference // POWERFUL / Deliver more value, build better apps Store geospatial data such as GML, KML, and GeoRSS and do complex queries on the data or in combination with other data types. Also integrate with ESRI ArcGIS and Google Maps for visualization. Store RDF triples and query them using SPARQL—providing context to your data and better search with a database that can handle a combination of documents, data, and triples. Store and manage data natively as JSON documents, speeding up development and reducing data transformation with a simplified architecture for end-to-end JavaScript development. Create an unlimited number of real- time alerts by or text using the alerting API and reverse indexes. Whenever a document is loaded that matches a specific query, you’ll know. Run complex distributed transactions across multiple documents and collections with no performance drop- offs at scale. Production applications run tens of thousands of transactions per second for tens of thousands of users. Work with new data that didn’t exist before. For example, if John lives in London, and London is in England, then MarkLogic can infer that “John lives in England” and then add that new fact to your semantic search. Store and manage data in different tiers based on cost and performance trade-offs, and easily migrate between tiers without any ETL, additional software, or expensive infrastructure changes. Live in JavaScript. Run JavaScript near the data for unparalleled power and efficiency with a high performance JavaScript runtime inside MarkLogic using Google’s V8. Built-in, lightning fast search and query capabilities across hundreds of billions of documents. And, full- featured UX with type-ahead suggestions, facets, snippeting, relevance ranking, and language support. Rely on over 30 sophisticated, composable indexes including a universal index, range index, geospatial index, and triple index—all designed so that developers can ask harder questions and get faster responses. Handle historical data along two different timelines, making it possible to rewind the information “as it actually was” in combination with “as it was recorded” at some point in time.

Use MarkLogic’s cloud templates to get up and running quickly on AWS or other cloud environments, starting with a three node cluster or a large cluster with over a hundred nodes. REST API SQL Support Multi-OS Support Scalable and Elastic Cloud Ready (AWS) Samplestack Hadoop and HDFS Schema Agnostic XA Transactions Index Across Data Types Ad-hoc Queries MarkLogic Content Pump // AGILE / Prepare for and respond to change Configure and administer MarkLogic with a single REST-based API. This provides more programmatic control than ever before—giving DBAs the power and flexibility necessary to run a modern data center. Make Hadoop better by connecting it to MarkLogic and using it as part of an infrastructure to handle both operational and analytic workloads. Handle petabytes of data without over-provisioning, over-spending, or experiencing downtime, inconsistency, or risk of data loss. Get going fast on MarkLogic with Samplestack, an end-to-end three tiered sample application designed to show developers how to implement a reference architecture using key MarkLogic concepts and sample code. Use multiple indexes in concert across multiple data types—giving you the power to search and query all of your data. MLCP makes it easy to quickly import or export documents and metadata from MarkLogic, or to copy from one database to another using a command-line tool. Run distribute transactions across a cluster using the XA (eXtended Architecture) standard, which ensures ACID properties for global transaction processing. Don’t plan your queries in advance of ingesting your data. MarkLogic is designed for search and discovery so that you can run any query at any-time and get real-time results. Use a relational SQL data model within MarkLogic, connecting to SQL- based tools using the ODBC driver, or execute SQL commands against relational databases using the MLSAM open-source XQuery library. Run MarkLogic on Windows, Linux, Solaris, OS X. MarkLogic runs easily and is easy to setup in your environment, whether in the cloud, virtualized, or on premises. Only use schema when you need it. Ingest all your data as-is, whether structured or unstructured, using the NoSQL document model rather than being forced to use a predefined schema.

Use third party authentication from LDAP or Kerberos, making the most secure NoSQL database easier to manage. Monitoring and Management Configuration Management 24/7 Engineering Support Performance at scale LDAP and Kerberos Security Flexible Replication Security Certifications ACID Transactions Customizable Failover Atomic Forests Point-in-time Recovery Customizable Backup // TRUSTED / Enterprise-ready for mission-critical uses Use the Management API for cluster management, process automation, access controls, database cloning, audit trails, and connections to third-party interfaces. Secure your data with government-grade security. MarkLogic has certified, granular security for modern data governance and to handle the increased complexity of today’s cyber threats. Scales easily to handle hundreds of terabytes using shared-nothing architecture in which data partitions are completely independent of each other and can act independently. Enable customizable information sharing between systems, allowing for the easy and secure distribution of portions of data even across disconnected, intermittent, and latent networks. Manage data in collections of documents similar to partitions, called forests, that exist independently and enable scalability and elasticity, rebalancing, efficient operations, and easier data governance. Restore the database quickly with minimal downtime, relying on full and consistent backups, hot configuration changes, and automatic index optimization without shutting down the system. Have confidence that your data is always available, reducing risk and avoiding interruptions with automated local- or shared-disk failover made possible with shared- nothing architecture. Rollback to a specified point in time by replaying journal archives, an additional feature to ensure disaster recovery and easy of management. View and manage the configuration settings for MarkLogic databases, forests, application servers, groups or hosts—and easily propagate changes across the entire cluster. Rely on support from the 24/7, all- engineer support staff to ensure you get answers fast, or just want some friendly tips on saving a few milliseconds on performance. Don’t settle for a BASE-ic database. Use ACID transactions to ensure you don’t run the risk of encountering data corruption, stale reads, and inconsistent data—all of which are unacceptable.
