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...

Andrew Harper Announces Winners of His Annual Grand Awards
Bardessono Hotel and Spa Named Best in USA and Canada

YOUNTVILLE, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/16/13 -- Andrew Harper's Hideaway Report has named Bardessono Hotel and Spa as one of three best hotels in the USA and Canada.

Editor-in-Chief Andrew Harper notes, "A Grand Award winner has to tick all the boxes, for comfort, design, food, amenities, service, and location."

The complete list of 2013 Grand Award Winners, as well as a number of Special Recognition Awards (Best Spa, Best Pool, Best Bar, etc.) is featured in the January Hideaway Report at www.AndrewHarper.com/GrandAwards.

This award is amongst the most prestigious in the luxury travel industry and is a trusted mark of quality recognized by consumers and travel professionals alike. It further acknowledges the finest standard in luxury and independent accommodation.

To be considered for the annual awards, properties must be relatively small in size, possess strong individual personalities, offer relaxing atmospheres and demonstrate a consistent devotion to personal service. Mr. Harper uses his three decades of experience to distinguish the truly enchanting from the merely excellent.

"We challenged ourselves in the development of Bardessono to marry sustainability and luxury. To see our efforts so nicely recognized with first, LEED Platinum certification, and now of even greater significance, this ranking among the best resorts in the world is really gratifying. We sincerely thank Andrew Harper," says General Manager Jim Treadway.

This award further asserts Bardessono's unparalleled commitment to providing a luxurious experience within an eco-friendly environment.
