Continuent
The company behind Tungsten Cluster and Tungsten Replicator, selling 24/7/365 support and professional services for MySQL and MariaDB high availability, disaster recovery, and geo-distributed clusters.
Continuent builds Tungsten Cluster, a high-availability, disaster-recovery, and geo-clustering solution for MySQL, MariaDB, and Percona Server, and Tungsten Replicator for replicating data out of them. Both run on-premises and in the cloud.
Its business is the service around that software: paid support contracts with 24/7/365 coverage from engineers who have worked on mission-critical MySQL systems for decades, and professional services for designing and rolling out clusters, including multi-site meshes that re-route traffic to the nearest healthy data center when a site fails. Continuent also partners with Datavail, which implements Tungsten for clients and provides ongoing DBA support around it.
