Aestiva Array is a cross-platform database engine for running browser-based applications. It is based on a small binary (10 megabyte) kernel available for different kinds of servers. The kernel is packed with advanced software technologies. Made exclusively for browser-native applications, the kernel eliminates the need for external database engines, middleware, and numerous other technologies. Applications running on Array are cross-platform, transportable, and managed with its browser-based interface. The engine has been refined over the years with the uncompromising goal of lowering and/or eliminating IT overhead.
