Pandora Architecture
X88 Pandora is a self-contained, client/server product which runs on any java-compliant
platform
using commodity hardware. It takes full advantage of 64-bit technology and multiple CPUs to scale linearly.
Underpinning the unique capabilities of Pandora is a ground-breaking data and metadata engine that is
self-configuring, self-indexing, self optimising and entirely dedicated to
data management.
Pandora only ever stores data values once and provides ultra-fast analysis, discovery, manipulation, aggregation and
transformation of enterprise-scale data with
zero design or administration.
Pandora is resilient and provides multi-user, role-based security allowing teams to
collaborate
regardless of their location.
Pandora requires no components from other vendors or organisations,
therefore there are none of the complications, problems or delays usually experienced
due to compatibility issues with CPU architecture, operating system versions,
software patch level incompatibilities, database versions, and so on.
Pandora is robust and tolerates any kind of hardware or network failure.
User state is automatically memorised and restored if necessary.
Pandora never rejects data, it loads whatever it is given, analysing, categorising and storing it automatically.
Since there is no database schema and data is not stored in records, no database administration is required.
A single Pandora environment supports multiple character sets, including double-byte.
