Meanwhile, OceanBase is exploring the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) market, which now accounts for near 70 percent of its customer base. Regional banks, insurers, security brokers, and wealth management companies have also been partnering with OceanBase and see it as one of the leading database technology providers.
"With its 'product-driven growth' business model, OceanBase aims to make database system management and operation easier and more seamless, " said Yang Bing, CEO of OceanBase. "We look forward to working with partners, customers, developers, and other industry participants to accelerate the development of database technology with continuous technology and product innovations."
"The distributed database is able to handle computing tasks across different nodes, bringing great advantages to dealing with large throughput and group computing," said Michael “Monty” Widenius, founder at MariaDB Foundation and the main author of the original version of the open-source MySQL in the conference. As for open-sourced database products like MariaDB and OceanBase, he commented, “Products and communities will maintain their vitality when they attract tens of millions of users while building healthy businesses."
The rapid development of the internet industry is accelerating the technology innovations of distributed databases that naturally have the ability to expand on a large scale. According to a recent report released by market intelligence provider Gartner, with advanced features including high availability, high scalability, multimodal implementation, supports of hybrid workloads and high compatibility, native distributed databases such as OceanBase are leading the trend of development in database technology, and the CAGR of the global market reaches 16.9 percent.

Industrial Decarbonization: Calderion, WenCo and Terravent Invest in Graforce to Scale Plasma Pyrolysis Globally25.2.2026 09:07:00 EET | Press release
The investor consortium comprising the Paris-based Next Generation Fuels Industrial & Technological fund Calderion (Audacia), alongside infrastructure developer Terravent and WenCo Family Office, announces the closing of a strategic double-digit million-euro financing round for Berlin-based Graforce GmbH. The investment is dedicated to the industrial scale-up of Graforce’s proprietary plasma pyrolysis technology, addressing the growing global demand for cost-efficient low-carbon hydrogen, syngas, and carbon removal solutions that are compatible with existing industrial infrastructures. Disruptive alternative to conventional processes Graforce’s technology aims at replacing CO₂-intensive legacy routes such as steam reforming and classical gasification. By applying plasma to methane, biogas, flare gas, and landfill gas, the process converts these streams into their valuable molecular components instead of emitting them. The result is a high-efficiency production of clean hydrogen and syn
Mevion Medical Systems Announces CE Marking of the MEVION S250-FIT™ Proton Therapy System, Expanding Global Access to Compact Proton Therapy25.2.2026 09:00:00 EET | Press release
Mevion Medical Systems, the global leader in compact proton therapy, today announced that the MEVION S250-FIT Proton Therapy System has successfully completed the conformity assessment process and has received CE Marking under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (EU MDR). This regulatory milestone enables the marketing, sale, and clinical use of the MEVION S250-FIT system throughout the European Union, building on the system’s existing U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance granted in September 2025. The MEVION S250-FIT is the first and only proton therapy system designed to fit into a standard radiation therapy vault. By enabling cancer centers to use their existing infrastructure, the MEVION S250-FIT dramatically reduces the cost, complexity, and timeline traditionally associated with proton therapy adoption. This opens a new pathway for hospitals and cancer centers across Europe to bring advanced proton treatment to their patients. “With both FDA clearance and CE Marking now in hand, the MEVION S250-FIT is
