We are excited today to be launching a dedicated web site for dbShards with new and improved content to better explain what dbShards is and how it works.
dbShards has been in production since Q3 2009 and we are currently working towards a GA release of our version 2.2.0 product.
Our focus over the past 9 months has been supporting our customers who have systems in production and building out an awesome automated test suite (currently standing at over 500 tests) to ensure a high quality stable platform that our customers can totally rely on. Additionally we have been expanding our performance and scalability testing, the results of which will be available on this new site shortly.
