MariaDB Completes GridGain Acquisition to Power the Next Generation of Agentic AI

Business Wire India

MariaDB plc today announced the successful completion of its acquisition of GridGain Systems, Inc., the pioneer of in-memory computing and the force behind Apache Ignite. This strategic acquisition marks MariaDB’s move towards delivery of an AI-Ready Operating Platform, a unified system designed to handle the extreme-velocity data requirements of autonomous AI agents.

 

As enterprises transition from simple AI assistants to autonomous agentic systems that reason and act, traditional data layers are reaching a breaking point. By integrating GridGain’s in-memory technology, MariaDB now provides a single, high-velocity, persistent grounding layer that supports the entire AI lifecycle – from real-time data ingestion to complex reasoning.

 

“For the last 18 months, we have been building MariaDB for the agentic era,” said Rohit de Souza, CEO of MariaDB. “By bringing GridGain into the fold, we are delivering a unified platform that does the heavy lifting for the enterprise. We are removing the friction of manual data assembly and defining the high-velocity grounding layer that AI agents need to be truly useful – all backed by integrated support from a single company.”

 

Solving the Agentic Gap

 

The urgency for this platform is backed by industry shifts. Gartner® predicts, “40% of enterprise applications will feature task-specific AI agents by 2026 – up from less than 5% in 2025.”¹ Without a high-quality data foundation, “IDC warns that by 2027, companies that fail to establish high-quality, AI-ready data foundations will suffer a 15% productivity loss as generative and agentic systems falter” (IDC FutureScape 2026; Category: Worldwide Agentic Artificial Intelligence; Prediction 1).

 

MariaDB’s new platform addresses this inflection point by consolidating previously fragmented layers:

 

  • Unified transactions & analytics: Run real-time analytics alongside live transactions on the same platform without the friction of ETL (extract, transform, load).
  • In-memory velocity: Leveraging GridGain’s expertise to provide sub-millisecond response times for agentic workloads.
  • Natively AI ready: Built-in vector capabilities to store, index and query embeddings, along with MCP server and integrations to AI frameworks, essential for building RAG workloads.
  • Global scale: Technology to support AI deployments across hybrid and multicloud environments, with instant scaling.

 

The Agentic Shift: No Assembly Required

 

Instead of forcing developers to manually stitch together separate databases for memory, vector search and transactions, MariaDB now offers a “single pane of glass” for data. This reduces complexity, lowers total cost of ownership (TCO) and allows developers to focus on building agent logic rather than managing backend bottlenecks.

 

“Building for this level of scale today is like trying to build a high-speed machine out of a bucket of LEGOs – you have the pieces, but none of the pieces were meant to fit together under that kind of intensity,” said Vikas Mathur, chief product officer at MariaDB plc. “At AI-speed, the window for a response shrinks. A data platform like MariaDB no longer has seconds; it has single-digit milliseconds to deliver answers to agents. By providing a platform with a high-speed in-memory ‘baseplate’ already built-in, we eliminate the friction of manual assembly. We are giving developers a unified grounding layer that can handle the massive scale these agents demand.”

 

Looking Ahead: The Distributed Future

 

GridGain’s technology provides the foundation for the next phase of MariaDB’s evolution: a globally distributed data layer. As AI agents become autonomous and dispersed, the data they rely on must be as resilient and localized as the agents themselves. By extending the MariaDB Enterprise Platform into a distributed architecture, MariaDB ensures this grounding layer can scale across any region without sacrificing the sub-millisecond speed that machine-velocity workflows demand. This is a significant acceleration of MariaDB’s commitment to a world where machine-speed is the baseline.

 

A Year of Unstoppable Momentum

 

The completion of the GridGain acquisition is the latest milestone in a series of strategic moves to redefine the modern data stack for the AI era. Over the past 18 months, MariaDB has rapidly accelerated its innovation cycle, marked by MariaDB’s acquisitions and complete integrations last year of SkySQL (cloud/DBaaS) and Galera Cluster (high availability). MariaDB also recently launched MariaDB Enterprise Platform 2026, the industry’s first unified solution to feature native RAG-in-a-box pipelines and Model Context Protocol (MCP) support, allowing AI agents to communicate directly with enterprise data. In addition, last year the company launched MariaDB Exa, an extremely powerful analytics engine that enables near real-time analytics on transactional data without the need to ETL or move data.

 

This commitment to innovation has earned significant industry recognition. In the past year, MariaDB was honored with the 2025 DBTA Readers’ Choice Award for Best Overall Database and the 2025 AI TechAward for Best in Open Source AI. These accolades, combined with the introduction of native vector search and a new serverless cloud experience, solidify MariaDB’s position as the definitive high-velocity alternative to legacy database constraints.

 

Customer and Analyst Endorsements

 

“At Hatch, we ensure the timely delivery of some of the world’s most complex engineering and construction projects. To manage this level of global scale, we moved beyond rigid and siloed legacy infrastructure to a data-centric platform,” said Tara Drover, CIO at Hatch. “By migrating to GridGain, we dramatically reduced our data processing times, transforming complex analysis and mid-project changes that once took minutes into near-instant outcomes. This is exactly the type of high-velocity capability we needed as we move toward an agentic future and deliver intelligent, predictive project management capabilities to our customers. We are excited to see GridGain become a foundational part of MariaDB, offering a unified platform that can support the next generation of autonomous and data-intensive workflows across the industries we serve.”

 

“MariaDB has been assembling a broader AI-ready platform through integrated vector search, the MariaDB Exa partnership for high-performance analytics, and the reacquisition of SkySQL to strengthen cloud delivery,” said Devin Pratt, research director, Data Management for IDC. “The GridGain acquisition extends that strategy into in-memory and real-time data processing, which may appeal to buyers seeking a more open alternative to fragmented or proprietary data stacks.”

SES Taps K2 Space to Accelerate Next-Gen MEO Satellite Network, meoSphere

Business Wire India

SES, a space solutions company, today announced it will deploy meoSphere, a next-generation medium Earth orbit (MEO) satellite network targeted for operation by 2030 and designed to significantly boost the company’s MEO network capacity.

 

The program launches with a close collaboration designed for efficient satellite production. SES will pair its own software-defined payloads, being developed and manufactured in Luxembourg, with an initial 28 high-power satellite platforms developed by K2 Space, representing the first phase of the broader meoSphere rollout. The collaboration gives SES tighter control over key supply-chain elements, compresses the build timeline, and allows the company to manage schedules and costs with precision, laying the foundation for future scalability.

 

 

meoSphere is SES’s next generation MEO network, significantly boosting global broadband capacity, increasing user data speeds while reducing terminal sizes and costs. These step-change improvements come from advances in payload and terminal technologies, software-defined networking, 5G non-terrestrial network (5G NTN) standards and MEO’s inherent strengths: efficient geographic coverage, ability to steer capacity to the high-demand areas, optimizing ground-station deployment, and low latency. The network is designed to meet growing demand for secure, stable, reliable, and resilient connectivity across government, mobility, and fixed telecommunications markets. The meoSphere network will be compatible with Europe’s IRIS2 program.

 

 

Orbiting at about 8,000 kilometers above Earth, SES is designing meoSphere for adaptability across new missions, new use cases, and new customer segments. Beyond its core broadband mission, the network’s flexible architecture will support multiple missions simultaneously, including integration with sovereign networks, serving governments and other customers that require sovereign solutions. meoSphere will also support the growing space economy, functioning as a space-based host for customer payloads and as a “backbone network in space” that enables interconnections between constellations in all orbits to relay data to each other and to the ground in real time.

 

 

“Space is the invisible backbone of the global data economy and national security,” said Adel Al-Saleh, CEO of SES. “Together with K2 Space and other space partners, we’re building meoSphere as essential infrastructure—constructed faster, designed to handle massive data demands globally, and built to support the secure, resilient sovereign networks that our global government allies depend on.”

 

 

“The meoSphere partnership with SES is a clear validation of K2’s mission to build the highest power satellites on orbit to realize our partners’ and customers’ ambitions in space,” said Karan Kunjur, Co-Founder and CEO of K2 Space. “We’re incredibly proud to partner in this effort with SES, a longstanding and forward-leaning space industry leader who shares our commitment to building new, efficient space architectures at speed and scale.”

 

 

Over the next three years, SES plans to launch a series of MEO “pathfinder” missions with K2 Space to test and validate the satellite bus and SES payload components in orbit, refine operational concepts, and reduce risk ahead of full-scale deployment. Each mission will carry progressively greater payload complexity, incorporating lessons learned from earlier flights into the development cycle.

 

 

This announcement builds on SES’s collaboration with K2 to develop a next generation MEO network. This initiative is included in the company’s previously-announced capital expenditure guidance for full-year 2026 and is expected to conform to SES’s financial policy of disciplined capital deployment. The company is committed to using a disciplined mix of commercial and public-private approaches to mitigate financial risk. In addition, SES intends to maintain a dual supply chain across the Atlantic to strengthen resilience against potential constraints in parts availability, permitting, and logistics.

 

 

Designed for continuity, built for confidence

 

 

meoSphere is engineered for customers whose operations cannot afford uncertainty — where connectivity failures have real-world consequences and performance must be guaranteed.

 

 

For government and defense customers, that means command-and-control communications that are resilient in contested environments. MEO’s orbital geometry offers inherent resilience: a smaller number of widely-spaced satellites presents a fundamentally different threat profile than dense low-orbit constellations, while the network’s transparent payload architecture allows sovereign customers to operate their own waveforms and modems including in the “military Ka-Band” spectrum range, preserving the security and independence that classified and sensitive missions require. Space-based routings via optical intersatellite links (OISLs) ensure traffic always lands in secure gateways.

 

 

For mobility customers in aviation and maritime, meoSphere will deliver fiber-equivalent throughput to support passenger connectivity, crew communications, and operational systems, simultaneously across ocean routes where coverage gaps are not an option. For commercial aviation, its combination of high throughput and low latency is built to perform at scale. meoSphere’s flexible design will enable SES to offer mobility clients multi-orbit solutions in combination with LEO and GEO.

 

 

For telecommunications operators and enterprises, meoSphere will offer a high-performance connectivity layer based on a 5G-NTN network suited to customers seeking path diversity and extended network reach.

 

 

How meoSphere is built: architecture and the K2 Space platform

 

 

meoSphere is a multi-mission space network built for government and commercial customers that require a high degree of security, control, reliability and resilience.

 

 

The architecture is optimized to take advantage of inherent strengths of the payload and bus: the high-power K2 Space satellite bus, which handles power, propulsion, flight control, and other foundational platform systems; and the digital regenerative SES payload, which carries the mission equipment—radios, processors, and antennas—to connect users and networks on the ground. By developing payloads and related software in-house, SES can apply repeatable design and test methods to accelerate batch production and maintain direct oversight of the performance characteristics that matter most to customers.

 

 

meoSphere architecture will allow SES to scale the network over time beyond the first 28 satellites. Scaling of the network will be determined by market demand.

IKS Health, a global leader in care enablement solutions, and Certilytics, Inc., an innovator in AI-driven healthcare intelligence, today announced an expansion of their strategic partnership. The new collaboration is designed to bridge the historic divide between payers and providers by turning predictive insights into safe, coordinated clinical actions.

As healthcare enters the era of agentic AI, the industry is moving beyond systems of intelligence that simply identify risks to systems of action that execute the work. By integrating Certilytics’ BrainstormAI® Studio and CertHLM™ with the IKS Health Agentic Care Enablement Platform, the companies are creating a premier ecosystem where AI agents manage complex tasks, such as prior authorization and patient outreach, under the continuous oversight of human expertise.

 

“At IKS Health, our mission is to enable care by removing the chores that prevent great outcomes. But for AI to be truly effective in healthcare, it must be responsible,” said Sachin K. Gupta, Founder and Global CEO of IKS Health. “By expanding our partnership with Certilytics, we are connecting payer rules and provider workflows through predictive analytics with our proven human-in-the-loop model serving as the ultimate safeguard for clinical and administrative accuracy.”

 

The collaboration initially centers on three key strategic use cases and workflows:

 

  • Prior authorization transparency: Moving beyond “rules of thumb” to real-time, payer-specific rule sets where more than 70% of all prior authorization workflows are handled autonomously, reducing the burden for providers and speeding up care for patients.
  • Member engagement: Scaling outreach that isn’t just a notification, but a proactive clinical connection to close care gaps.
  • Consumer price transparency: Giving patients and employers true financial outlooks at the point of care, not weeks later.

 

“We are equally excited about this unique partnership with IKS Health to bring providers, health plans, payers, and plan sponsors together in making full use of the science and computing power of generative AI capabilities,” said Merle A. Ryland, CEO of Certilytics. “Since 2014, the Certilytics team has developed, tested and commercialized exclusively healthcare agentic AI applications that empower authorized, credentialed users the ability to maximize the value of their data and expertise by generating more timely answers and analysis with all the necessary governance, security, and validity inherently necessary in applying AI science to healthcare.”

 

This partnership continues an ongoing collaboration based on the shared vision of bridging the payer-provider gap through agentic AI, human oversight, and unified action.

 

“In collaborating with IKS Health over the past two years, our data science and engineering teams have created truly practical, readily deployable AI architected tools that we believe will deliver on the immense promise of this science,” said Robert Dwyer, Ph.D., Chief Data Scientist of Certilytics.

NetApp and Commvault Advance Cyber Resilience with Strategic Alliance

Business Wire India

 

NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, and Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT), a leader in unified resilience at enterprise scale, today announced a strategic alliance to deliver a powerful, integrated solution for enterprise data protection and cyber resilience. The unified solution enables resilience, security, and rapid recovery for customers across on-premises and cloud environments, giving organizations confidence that their data is always available, immutable, and recoverable.

 

“This alliance reinforces NetApp and Commvault’s leadership in the rapidly evolving cyber resilience and data protection market,” said Dallas Olson, Chief Commercial Officer at NetApp. “Together we’re helping customers make their infrastructure intelligent and secure so they have the confidence that their data is always available, protected, and recoverable—no matter where it lives—while expanding our joint go-to-market reach and driving growth in a high-demand segment.”

 

 

Enterprises are re-architecting their cyber resilience strategies for an AI-driven world where unstructured, mission-critical data is growing at an unprecedented scale. As analytics, AI, video, and IoT workloads surge, resilience can no longer be reactive. Recovery from ransomware and cyber threats must be rapid, automated, and inherently secure. Resilience at scale is now foundational, not optional, for compliance support, operational continuity, and competitive advantage.

 

 

This alliance addresses a critical need for scaling resilience via unified cyber detection and ransomware recovery. By combining Commvault’s leading resilience, protection, and recovery capabilities with NetApp’s enterprise-grade data platform with built-in intelligence and AI-driven ransomware detection, the companies create a highly differentiated, end-to-end cyber resilience solution.

 

 

“Organizations often detect cyberattacks like ransomware too late, after they have spread across primary systems and backups, leading to a larger blast radius, extended downtime, and missed recovery time objectives,” said Gagan Gulati, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Data Services at NetApp. “The alliance between Commvault and NetApp enables customers to further defend and recover from ransomware attacks in real-time, support compliance requirements, and help ensure business continuity across hybrid environments. By combining proven resilience and built-in detection and response capabilities, our joint customers can have the peace of mind that their data is available, protected and recoverable no matter where it lives.”

 

 

Closed Loop Recovery Architecture with NetApp Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP)

 

 

With this alliance, NetApp and Commvault together deliver a closed-loop recovery architecture that combines early ransomware detection signals with an automated, validated recovery workflow at scale. This approach can streamline RPOs and help organizations embrace a Resilience Operations (ResOps) strategy for a more proactive defense against cyberattacks. By integrating NetApp’s AI-powered ARP on primary storage integrated with Commvault’s threat aware backup and Synthetic Recovery, organizations can minimize data loss, accelerate complete recoveries, and regain operational confidence when it matters most. Additionally, this joint offering can help customers also realize shorter rollback windows and improved data preservation with a faster return to operations and lower downtime costs.

 

 

Future joint innovation will include leveraging NetApp ONTAP restore technology as the target to further reduce data loss and significantly improve recovery speed.

 

 

“The first step in building cyber resilience in your organization is the ability to recover with trust and speed,” said Pranay Ahlawat, Chief Technology and AI Officer at Commvault. “Together Commvault and NetApp detect potential attacks close to the data and make trusted recovery decisions to quickly, cleanly, and completely restore data at scale. Our joint customers will be able to innovate with confidence that their data and their business can be resilient in the face of disruption.”

NetApp and Elastio Announce Partnership to Deliver Defense-in-Depth Ransomware Resilience

Business Wire India

 

NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, and Elastio are helping enterprises enhance their cyber resilience with a layered defense that extends from production storage into recovery data. Security teams must be ready to address threats at every layer of their technology stack, including ransomware that moved quietly through production before it was caught that now lives inside snapshots and backups. Advanced ransomware is engineered to evade prevention tools, moving quietly through production, staying below detection thresholds, reaching backup data before any alert is triggered.

 

“As we migrated our infrastructure, ensuring we had the right level of backup security and assurance was non-negotiable,” Marc Crudgington, VP IT Infrastructure and CISO, Crane WW Logistics. “Elastio provided continuous inspection of our backups from day one – giving us confidence in our ability to recover. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to.”

 

 

The companies are embedding Elastio’s Provable Recovery Control into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service as “Powered by Elastio,” adding Deep File Inspection of snapshots. Together, the service delivers end-to-end resilience from ransomware detection through recovery – using recovery points that are continuously verified as clean.

 

 

“Storage needs to be part of the conversation when defining a holistic cyber security strategy,” Gagan Gulati, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Data Services. NetApp. “By protecting data where it lives, we make storage a priority to combat cyber threats like ransomware. But the stakes for business resilience and operational continuity are too high to rely on a single layer of defense. By collaborating with Elastio, we’re giving enterprises another tool to protect their most critical asset: data.”

 

 

A New Layer of Defense Inside the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service

 

 

  • NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service: Detects and contains ransomware at the data layer in real time, takes immutable snapshots, guides recovery, and continuously assesses ransomware posture across ONTAP® environments. Includes behavioral detection via Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP).
  • Elastio Provable Recovery Control: Deep File Inspection of ONTAP snapshots, detecting zero-day ransomware, staged malware, and stealth corruption that evaded perimeter controls. No agents and continuously identify the last known clean recovery points.

 

 

Through this collaboration, both companies are enhancing cyber resilience for customers by embedding Elastio Provable Recovery Control directly into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service with no separate procurement and no architecture changes.

 

“Most organizations discover their recovery data is compromised at the worst possible moment: during an active incident,” Naj Husain, CEO, Elastio. “By then the question of whether backups are clean is no longer theoretical. The joint solution answers that question continuously, before the incident forces it.”

 

 

Availability

 

 

The NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service powered by Elastio is planned for availability in the near future. Enterprise organizations interested in early access should contact their NetApp or Elastio representative to assess their current recovery posture.

Sectigo Introduces Industry-First Multi-Tenant Partner Platform to Deliver Certificate Lifecycle Management as a Managed Service

Business Wire India

Sectigo, a global leader in automated Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) and digital certificates, today introduced Sectigo Partner Platform (SPP), the industry’s first multi-tenant partner platform purpose-built to enable MSPs, MSSPs, VARs and distributors to scale and monetize certificate management operations. With SSL/TLS certificates now expiring faster and Postquantum Cryptography (PQC) on the horizon, partners need automated tools to keep customers secure and prevent outages. SPP enables partners to build an innovative portfolio of CLM services to reduce operational risk caused by mismanaged or expired certificates and turn digital trust needs into a ready-to-sell managed service.

 

An Industry Shift Creating a Major Opportunity for Channel Partners

 

 

Recent research reveals that only 13% of organizations are extremely confident they are tracking all certificates, exposing a critical operational and visibility gap. As certificate volumes surge and renewal cycles accelerate, many organizations lack the tools and resources to keep up, creating a growing need for partners who can bring automation and visibility to certificate management. This creates a clear opportunity for partners to offer CLM services that not only expand their portfolios but help them stand out in the market.

 

 

“Shorter SSL/TLS certificate lifespans and the proliferation of certificates for nonhuman, machine identity use cases are driving unprecedented certificate volumes to manage, creating a major opportunity for partners,” said Jairo Fraile, vice president of global partner sales at Sectigo. “With Sectigo Partner Platform, MSPs can turn certificate lifecycle management into a scalable, revenue-generating managed service—reducing customer risk, preventing outages, and keeping pace with accelerating certificate lifecycles through automation and true multitenant control.”

 

 

Introducing Sectigo Partner Platform

 

 

While other vendors require partners to manage all customers under a single tenant—or repurpose enterprise CLM tools in ways they weren’t designed for—SPP delivers true multi‑tenancy. Each end customer gets a fully isolated tenant with separate usage reporting, billing, certificate inventories, and admin controls, all accessible through a single self-service interface for partners. This allows partners to maintain proper security and compliance boundaries while scaling certificate management operations. With automation-first architecture and seamless integration with Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM), Sectigo’s award-winning CLM solution, the platform enables partners to operate more efficiently and profitably as certificate volumes surge.

 

 

A Platform That Helps Partners Scale

 

 

SPP is designed to help partners streamline certificate operations, prevent outages, and easily package CLM as a managed service. With SPP, partners can now:

 

 

  • Offer CLM as a packaged, managed service.
  • Eliminate manual effort with automated certificate validation, issuance, and renewal workflows.
  • Prevent customer outages due to mismanaged certificates that trigger emergency tickets.
  • Gain complete visibility across all customer certificates and subscription inventories.
  • Create predictable recurring revenue with subscription-based licensing.
  • Expand service portfolios with support for private PKI and device certificates, with flexible packaging tiers.

 

SPP sits under the broader Sectigo Partner Program, designed to help channel partners build, protect, and scale high‑value managed services practices. The program provides deal registration protection, profit‑focused discounts, and hands‑on sales and technical enablement delivered through the Sectigo Connect Partner Portal. Sectigo’s partner-friendly approach ensures partners can confidently package, sell, and scale CLM services with a protected and predictable revenue model.

 

“As certificate lifecycles continue to shrink, customers rely on us to protect them from outages and visibility gaps due to mismanaged certificates,” said Timo Aarvala, CEO at Mintly Oy. “Sectigo Partner Platform’s multi-tenant architecture gives us the control and automation we need to deliver that assurance at scale. It also opens the door for us to grow our business by offering diverse, modern services like Certificate Lifecycle Management that address the digital trust challenges of today and tomorrow.”

 

 

Explore SPP at CloudFest 2026

 

 

Sectigo is proud to introduce SPP at CloudFest 2026, the world’s #1 internet infrastructure event, and invites all conference attendees to experience the future of CLM in the Sectigo VIP Lounge, where live SPP demonstrations will be available throughout the week.

 

 

Sectigo’s team will be onsite to answer questions, explore use cases, and discuss how partners can integrate SPP into their existing service portfolios. Attendees are also encouraged to join Sectigo’s Peter Roybal, director of product management, on Wednesday, March 25 at 4:25pm CET for his session, “Racing Against the Clock on Digital Trust: Shorter Certificates, Bigger Quantum Risks.

 

 

SPP is currently available to a select number of channel partners. Channel partners ready to modernize certificate management and increase revenue can get in touch with Sectigo today HERE.
