Garantia Data is now Redis Labs, a name change that reflect its roots as a database provider that uses the Redis open-source technology, a popular NoSQL database used by developers at companies like Pinterest and Twitter. It’s the second time in the past three months the company has said it is changing its name. In the fall, Garantia changed its name to RedisDB but after some retort from the open-source Redis community, the company pulled back and kept the Garantia name. This time, the company says there is no going back — it is now Redis Labs. Redis Labs, based out of Israel and Santa Clara,has gained acceptance in a short period of time for how it can provide infinite scalability of a Redis cluster. It also offers a degree of automation as pointed out in a blog post by Giovanni Bajo, a computer programmer: …This means that when you provision a Redis server, you start paying for 25Mb of RAM, and you can keep growing up to Gigabytes of RAM withouteverrestarting your Redis instance. It never changes IP or DNS address, you never need to manually setup replications, to plan downtimes, etc. You use as much RAM as you want on thesameRedis instance you provisioned the first day. It made sense for the company to change its name last November but the choice proved not so favorable with the Redis creator. “We were about to change our company name to RedisDB and even acquired the domain redisdb.com for that purpose; however, respecting a request by Salvatore Sanfillipo, the Redis creator, we decided to stick to Garantia Data,” said Co-Founder and CEOOfer Bengal last November.
