Company Summary
What is Membase? Membase, Inc., along with Zynga and NHN, founded the membase.org open source project.
Membase is a high-performance, elastic key-value database, based on the ubiquitous memcached project; Membase is 100% backward compatible with memcached. A very simple migration strategy allows users of memcached (and there are tens of thousands of them) to begin using membase with absolutely no change to existing code. Membase provides quasi-deterministic low latency and high sustained throughput, and it scales linearly from a single-server deployment to a cluster of thousands of machines. It is the primary database system behind FarmVille - a Zynga game serving hundreds of millions of users per month. Find out more at http://membase.com http://membase.org.
Who funded us? Our investors are among the most successful, top tier Silicon Valley VCs including Accel, Mayfield, and Northbridge. They recognize our huge market opportunity and helped found NorthScale, putting in place a top-tier leadership team with proven track records. Zynga also invested in our company - a huge vote of confidence from a customer(!) that's pushed our software to the limits, and beyond, in one of the busiest web applications on the planet.
Who are we looking for? Top talent in all fields. Developers, QA professionals and technical marketing leaders who are looking for technology challenges in an environment that will truly allow them to put their mark on the industry.
