  • What are the advantages of Relavance?
    The advantages are legion. This is the only network aware database on the planet and is capable of real-time replication to over several systems. Here are some of our benefits: • Summarizing our technology is a complex task as we are discussing a PARADIGM shift in the way data is both Stored and Retrieved. • A few Key points • Case sensitive • Little or no support stuff • Object-oriented design • No queries to write - 80% reduction in time development • No tables - 50-75% reduction development costs • No Indexes - only 6 instructions in the API • No views - one line of code access to your data • No whitespace - associate anything to anything • No duplicates - DOD verified Security Model • 1 to 100+ concurrent sources of disparate DATA (ORACLE, MSSQL, MSSQL, ACCESS, DB2, Excel, Flat FILES (CSV) )
  • What is the difference between relational and associative databases?
    All existing databases today are constrained by a structure and management of that structure and physical limitations; Relavance exists in the nth Normal form and has essentially unlimited capacity as it has abstracted the logical from the physical. ​ Our DB is collections of 4byte arrays, and each new association is a 32bit integer. Addressing is done through indexing. We manipulate the address to the data. In our system, the Environment is the "Database", the model is the "Table", The Concept is the "Field", and the Item is a "piece of data". No matter what size, any piece of data is just 4 reads away.
  • How long does it take to install the program?
    It is a simple 5-minute download.
  • What kind of data can go into Relavance?
    Relavance is data-type agnostic, and as such can accept input from any type of data.
  • What is the size of the program?
    It is only 23 Megabytes installed.
  • How much does it cost? How is it sold?
    Cost depends on the project, number of instances installed, etc.
  • What if I want to make changes once I build my system?
    Once you have built the base system, being atomic it is good forever. You can add or delete at will- without changing the core of the database or having to recode or upgrade.
  • Do I have to replace my existing databases?
    No, it can run on top of and in parallel with your existing databases as long as you wish. At some point, you may determine the redundancy is not necessary and start to eliminate extraneous databases.
  • What kind of technology is required to install and run Relavance?
    Windows.net 3.5 and up, Windows 7 or Windows Server 2012 and up Minimum req. Dual processors (not dual cores), 8 Gig RAM, and whatever storage required.
  • How hard is it to learn this system?
    Relatively easy for a computer-savvy individual. The instruction manual is only 24 pages, with only 6 API's. A maximum of two weeks of training should suffice.
  • Why do you not run queries? how do I get my information?
    All the information in the system is associated automatically. When you ask a question of the system- it returns what you requested immediately. Rather than search through lists of items, it eliminates everything but what you asked for. This explains our motto: We do not search for data, we retrieve information. When you ask you are always getting the most updated information (you are not running reports so to speak- the report is already there).
  • Is this system secure?
    In addition to having been deployed and tested by the U.S. NAVY as unbreakable, the system uses mathematical encryption (not certificate). ​ Data security is based on 128-bit, 48,000 factorial multi-key indexing. It is unbreakable. Additional security enhancement for sign-on and password possible via Authenware.
  • Big data means very big storage size data, what can I expect with using Relavance?"
    Because Relavance is a Single Instance Storage system (no duplication) –the larger your data size, typically the greater the reduction in storage requirement
  • What if I want to make changes once I build my system?
    Once you have built the base system, being atomic it is good forever. You can add or delete at will- without changing the core of the database or having to recode or upgrade.
