CHENNAI: Indian software engineers, employed by the software giant IBM in the country, were involved in the development of the company's "revolutionary" DB2 9, data server -- code named 'Viper" -- software, which would be globally launched on July 28, a top company official said today.
IBM India Software Lab Vice President Harish K Gramme told reporters that over 400 software professionals working in IBM laboratories in Gurgaon, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune, had helped in the development of the software, which would lower the data storage cost by 80 per cent.
Viper was the first data server, specifically designed for service oriented architecture-based environments and customers, who had tested, had stated that the Viper's patented 'extended market language' capability had speeded their queries by 100 times, he said.
IBM India software group Country Head R Dhamodaran said the software would help the government, defence and banks in the country to compress their data.
He said the data storage market, which was estimated at 148 billion US dollar, was growing at 20 per cent every year.
