I do not agree that NewSQL vendors focus on giving scale-out features to transactional data. The NewSQL market is focusing on giving true ACID support combined with extreme performance, stepping away from the traditional relational structures in databases. A lot of developers appreciate the ease of accessing data using SQL and I think we will see more and more databases supporting standard SQL. As you said - NewSQL databases often maintain the...

In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months. This is when many of us take a hard look at what worked and what did not, complete performance reviews, and formulate plans for the coming year. For me, it is all of those things plus a time when I u...

ColonialAmerica.com: Bountiful New Portal to a Storied Past

WARWICK, R.I., Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Devotees of colonial and early American history have heretofore had to pursue their passion piecemeal, flitting from website to website to discover the latest news, information and events related to this fascinating era that holds so many captive.

Now, with the launch of ColonialAmerica.com, all of the above and more can be accessed in one central location. The new web portal will offer visitors a smorgasbord of features focusing on the period spanning the mid 16th to the early 19th centuries. They include news and original articles on the history, archaeology and preservation of our colonial heritage; a calendar of upcoming events and reenactments; a library of videos covering a multitude of topics, including Jamestown, Plymouth, the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and many others; and a searchable database featuring thousands of Colonial and Early American historic sites and markers.

ColonialAmerica.com is also a marketplace for a diverse selection of books, music, videos and art. A number of additional features including a greatly expanded marketplace listing tours, inns, bed and breakfast and other colonial-themed travel opportunities are planned for rollout soon.

ColonialAmerica.com is the creation of Vernon Elliott, who as a child living in Fort Eustis, Virginia—near Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown—became an avid visitor to these historic venues and cultivated a lifetime love of colonial times. The idea for the website crystallized with his purchase of an original copy of The Providence Gazette and Country Journal, the first newspaper published out of Providence in the Colony of Rhode Island beginning in 1762.

"The Internet gives us a wonderful opportunity to compile, explore and share the legacies of this extraordinary era," says Elliott. "With ColonialAmerica.com, I endeavored to create a living archive and online repository where every enthusiast can find a rich assortment of things to learn, do and acquire to indulge their passion for all things colonial."

Elliott adds that ColonialAmerica.com is an excellent resource for teachers and students wishing to supplement their knowledge of American history, bringing to life the people and events that shaped the foundations of our country. Many additional features for the website are planned.

For more information on this historic new web portal, or to inquire about advertising opportunities on www.ColonialAmerica.com, please email sales@colonialamerica.com or call 401-415-6174.
