RainStor is a software company that provides a database designed to manage and analyze big data for large enterprises. It uses de-duplication techniques to organize the process of storing large amounts of data for reference. The company's origin traces back to a special project conducted by the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence with the purpose of storing volumes of data from years of field operations for ongoing analysis and training purposes.〔 RainStor is headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States with offices in Gloucester, United Kingdom and New York.〔 The company's engineers are located in Gloucester. John Bantleman serves as chief executive officer of RainStor and Jamie Andrews is the company's chief operating officer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=RainStor )〕 RainStor partners with companies including Amdocs, Anritsu, AdaptiveMobile, Dell, Group2000, HP, and Teradata.〔 ==History== Originally named Clearpace, RainStor was founded in 2002 by engineering specialists in the United Kingdom.〔 The company was originally created to exploit technology that was developed by the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence to store big data.〔 The company released its NParchive software, which deduplicated and archived rarely used data, in 2008. The company was renamed RainStor (a portmaneteau of relational archiving infrastructure storage) with its December 2009 move from the United Kingdom to San Francisco.〔 The release of version 3.5 of RainStor, the now-eponymous software originally launched in May 2009, coincided with the company's rebranding and move. RainStor received $7.5 million in venture funding from Storm Ventures, Doughty Hanson Technology Ventures, Informatica, and The Dow Company in March 2010.〔 In October 2012, RainStor received $12 million in venture funding from Credit Suisse, Doughty Hanson Technology Ventures, Storm Ventures, the Dow Chemical Company, and Rogers Venture Partners. As of October 2012, the company reportedly had over 100 commercial enterprise clients.〔 Bantleman publicly stated that RainStor wants to work with companies in the telecommunications and finance industries, as well as with government agencies.〔 Bantleman isolated these three industries because of their need for Big Data capabilities and more stringent compliance regulations around how they manage and retain data. Teradata acquired RainStor in 12/17/2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RainStor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
