1.1. Overview

The current enterprise business rapidly expanded with the explosive increase of data and the advent of a variety of environments and platforms. This new business environment requires more flexible and efficient data services, information handling, and data management functions.

Tibero is an enterprise database management system that supports building a database infrastructure on which enterprise business is implemented and provides high performance, high availability, and scalability.

To make up for the disadvantages of existing DBs, Tibero implemented its own Tibero thread architecture. It also uses system resources such as CPU and memory efficiently, guarantees high performance and reliability, and provides a convenient development environment and management features.

Tibero was developed to handle a large number of users and large amounts of data while offering reliability and compatibility.

Tibero is a data management solution that manages large amounts of data and guarantees reliable business continuity. Tibero has all of the features needed for an RDBMS environment such as distributed database links, data replication, data clustering, and parallel query processing.

Tibero is a superior DB that supports an optimized database environment.
