Overview

MarkLogic provides a schema-less NoSQL database focused on integrating data from disparate enterprise silos to enable analytics and application development. Its core product emphasizes security and fine-grained access controls; the company recently launched version 9 with features such as element-level permissions and redactions. MarkLogic’s customer base is primarily Global 2000 companies, and the platform is often adopted by large organizations seeking to consolidate heterogeneous data stores. The company reports annual revenue “north of $100 million.” MarkLogic has long-standing reseller and implementation ties with NTT Data, which has used and resold the database since 2012; the firms say the relationship will help MarkLogic enter additional markets where NTT Data is strong. Total historical financing exceeds $173 million, including a $102 million Series F in 2015. MarkLogic delivers an enterprise-hardened NoSQL database platform that combines the transactional reliability, security, and availability of relational systems with the flexibility and scalability of NoSQL. The platform is purpose-built for the enterprise and is positioned to handle heterogeneous and dynamic data for information applications. MarkLogic reports more than 13 years of commercial deployment and a customer roster of over 550 global enterprises and government agencies, including six of the top ten global banks and multiple U.S. federal agencies. The company highlights placement in the Gartner Operational Database Management Systems Leaders Quadrant (October 2014) and emphasizes its distinct enterprise features compared with open-source NoSQL offerings. MarkLogic intends to use new funding to accelerate global market expansion across Europe, Japan and Asia Pacific, expand its partner ecosystem, and support continued product innovation. The company is headquartered in Silicon Valley and maintains offices across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. MarkLogic offers an enterprise NoSQL database platform whose flagship release, MarkLogic 7, added elasticity, Tiered Storage and Semantics capabilities. The platform integrates search and application services and is available on the Amazon Web Services Marketplace. In fiscal 2014 (ended Jan 31) the company reported its most profitable year with record license and consulting bookings, strong maintenance renewal rates, and solid double‑digit growth. MarkLogic expanded into new markets including Japan and Europe, broadened partner relationships, and added customers across multiple verticals. The company introduced new pricing and packaging, a free developer license, and cloud‑ready hourly pricing for AWS, and engineered semantics into the database to deliver richer contextual insights. In April it raised $25 million in new capital to increase go‑to‑market capacity and support global expansion. MarkLogic makes software to help companies deliver content across various information systems. Its flagship product, the MarkLogic Server, is an XML server that allows companies to share information across multiple systems, including the web. The company says it has more than 150 customers. MarkLogic is based in San Carlos, Calif. It recently raised $12.5 million in a fourth round of funding from existing backers Sequoia Capital and Tenaya Capital.
