Altibase Altibase is a relational database management system offered and developed by Altibase Corp. in South Korea. It claims to be world’s first hybrid DBMS. Because Altibase is, in its nature, a in-memory database and a traditional disk based database at the same time.
There are two types of tables supported by Altibase: in-memory table (also called memory table) and disk table.
Since Altibase was originally developed as a in-memory database, all tables resided in memory until Altibase V.4 was released. As of Altibase V.4, it started supporting both disk tables and memory tables, and proclaimed to be a hybrid DBMS.
Altibase is widely used in telecommunicaiton industries and stock exchange markets in Korea. SK Telecom, KTF, Samsung, LG Telecom and almost every stock exchange company in the country are known to be running altibase.
Major telecommunication companies in China such as China Mobile and China Telecom are also using Altibase V.4 in their mission-critical data processing area.
