Fred Lackey, Database Architect

Built for the Demands of Modern Enterprise

Uncompromising Security

A business-aware security model that integrates role-based access control at the database level, ensuring data is protected by design.

Effortless Scalability

An architecture conceived for distributed environments, allowing for seamless scaling to handle enterprise-level workloads without sacrificing performance.

Maximum Reliability

Intelligent, state-aware caching and transactional integrity mechanisms designed to deliver the uptime and consistency that enterprises require.

Deep Dive: The ProgresSQL Security Framework

The ProgresSQL concept moves beyond traditional database security. Instead of treating security as a layer, it's woven into the core logic of the database. This 'security-by-design' approach ensures that access policies are not an afterthought but a fundamental component of data management, reducing attack surfaces and simplifying compliance.
