Overview

BuildDB is a next generation database solution displacing leading storage solutions, including AWS DynamoDB, Azure, CosmoDB, Redis, MongoDB, and Couchbase by offering high performance at scale, reduced costs, and enhanced security with a blockchain database that is private and permissioned unlike typical blockchain architectures. Built on a blockchain architecture that delivers superior energy performance, zero trust and immutability. BuildDB is a multi-type database solution that is a fusion of document (noSQL), relational (SQL), stateful/cache and vector database types to create a new and disruptive way to store, manage, and protect data. Designed for B2B applications that manage large datasets, BuildDB is built on a highly scalable “event-actor” architecture that allows for very large numbers of virtual units of compute on standard hardware. BuildDB’s revolutionary architecture does NOT use indexing, thus alleviating the inefficiency of storing multiple copies of datasets. The result is a highly distributed and performant solution at a lower cost than other solutions.

Throughput and speed problems are solved at scale and the integration of database and blockchain technologies mean that users no longer have to add their own security to the database. BuildDB automatically provides security and data immutability. BuildDB is also offered as a SaaS application managed in a continuous delivery model and is available for deployment from AWS Marketplace.

Key Capabilities / Features

BuildDB addresses the following requisite concerns without compromising performance:


- Immutability - Build DB protects your data against threat actors and ransomware attacks.
- Security - Build DB incorporates zero-trust to each block in your ledger.
- Provenance - Users can store data as immutable and traceable transactions.
- Governance - Users can add roles to each of their blocks to protect against unauthorized access.
- Accessibility - Build DB protects data against legitimate credentials in the hands of threat actors.


These capabilities allow for the following advantages:


● Performance - Single digit millisecond query speeds. Real-world testing shows performance gains of more than 10x.
● Costs - BuildDB turns traditional database storage on its head by alleviating the need for indexes which typically cause duplicative cloud storage.
● Resilience - The unique BuildDB architecture is fault tolerant, self-healing and ransomware resistant.
● Security - BuildDB incorporates zero-trust to each block in your ledger.


BuildDB is ahead of the curve, enhancing the capabilities of databases and providing the ability to power a wide variety of AI applications, an important upcoming need for the market.


BuildDB can power AI applications such as:
● NLP – BuildDB can be used to store and query word embeddings, e.g. for text classification, sentiment analysis and machine translation.
● Computer Vision – BuildDB can be used to store and query image embeddings, which can be used for tasks such as image classification, object detection and image retrieval.
● Recommendation systems – BuildDB can be used to store and query user and item embeddings, which can be used to recommend products, movies and other items to users.


What makes BuildDB unique for AI applications:
● Support for multiple similarity metrics.
● The ability to perform approximate nearest neighbor search.
● The ability to query multiple vectors at once.


How we are different

• Efficiency & Performance at Scale. BuildDB uses a revolutionary “event-actor” messaging architecture that allows performance to stay linear regardless of database size. This is achievable using less infrastructure than completing solutions. This architecture also eliminates the need for indexing eliminating the need to store multiple copies of the same data. Build DB minimizes operational overhead and significantly reduces a company’s total cost of ownership while providing blazing fast performance. Customers typically save up to 40% of the cost of competitive solutions. It’s trusted and used by some of the largest organizations in the world. During the summer of 2023, EBI successfully conducted a pilot program with United Airlines for BuildDB and also began the implementation and design of a special project for a multi-billion-dollar energy company.
• We’ve reinvented blockchain. BuildDB stores data in a blockchain instead of tables/rows/columns. This allows us to provide an immutable and secure data store. In order to do this, BuildDB solves problems inherent in typical blockchain such as performance, efficiency and queryablity. BuildDB can create blocks in nanoseconds, without needing a network of power hungry computer nodes. At the same time, our blockchain is able to be queried using SQL and other tools to provide query results in sub-milliseconds.
• In 2023, BuildDB was recognized in the marketplace as a premier next-gen database solution displacing their competitors. BuildDB has been recognized as a finalist by the SC Media Awards, the CRN Tech Innovator Awards, and most recently the 2024 Cybersecurity World Awards validating EBI as one of the most innovative vendors in data security and management and a leader in safe and secure communications.
